On My Own
Marina Kaye Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I heard the sound of you to her together
Wanted to run and hide when I found out
Couldn't believe I knew her
Look what you've done to me, I played your fool
I was blind but now I see your truth
And the part of me that belonged to you
Forever dead and gone
Not gonna save you from the ocean just to drown in the storm
I'll be burning brighter, swimming, strong
I'll be flying higher 'til I get home
I don't need this empty feeling to carry me on
I'll do it on my own, do it on my own
I'll do it on my own, do it on my own
I see it in your eyes, down on your knees
You're praying for forgiveness
But I won't hear you lie so watch me leave
And she can be my witness
Look what you've done to me, I played your fool
I was blind but now I see your truth
In the part of me that belonged to you
Forever dead and gone
Not gonna set myself on fire just to keep you warm
Not gonna save you from the ocean just to drown in the storm
I'll be burning brighter, swimming, strong
I'll be flying higher 'til I get home
I don't need this empty feeling to carry me on
I'll do it on my own, do it on my own
I'll do it on my own, do it on my own
I'll do it on my own
I'll do it on my own
I'll do it on my own, do it on my own
I'll do it on my own, do it on my own
I'll do it on my own, do it on my own
I'll do it on my own, do it on my own

She vows to never again sacrifice herself for someone who does not appreciate her, saying that she will "do it on my own."
The lyrics are empowering and honest, showing how someone can come out stronger after a difficult relationship. Marina accepts that she was once blind to her partner's true character, but now she sees things clearly.
The chorus of the song is particularly powerful. Marina promises to "be burning brighter, swimming strong," and to "be flying higher til [she] gets home." She no longer needs the empty feeling she once had when she was with her partner, as she is capable of thriving on her own.
Overall, "On My Own" is a song about resilience, self-discovery, and growth, which many people can relate to when they go through tough times.

I saw the warning signs
J'ai vu les signaux de danger
I heard the sound of you to her together
J'ai entendu une chanson de toi pour vous ensemble
Wanted to run and hide when I found out
J'ai voulu m'enfuir et me cacher quand j'ai appris la nouvelle
Couldn't believe I knew her
Je ne pouvais pas croire que je la connaissais
Look what you've done to me, I played your fool
Regarde ce que tu m'as fait, je me suis conduite comme une idiote
I was blind but now I see your truth
J'étais aveugle, mais maintenant je vois ta vérité
In the part in me that belong to you
Dans la partie de moi qui t'appartient
Forever dead and gone
Ă jamais morte et partie
Not gonna set myself on fire just to keep you warm
Je ne vais pas me jeter au feu juste pour te garder au chaud
Not gonna save you from the ocean just to drown in the storm
Je ne vais pas te sauver de l'ocĂ©an juste pour me noyer dans la tempĂȘte
I'll be burning brighter, swimming, strong
Je brûlerai plus vivement, je nagerai, je serai forte
I'll be flying higher 'til I get home
Je volerai plus haut jusqu'Ă arriver chez moi
I don't need this empty feeling to carry me on
Je n'ai pas besoin de ce sentiment vide pour tenir bon
I'll do it on my own, do it on my own
Je me dĂ©brouillerai moi-mĂȘme, me dĂ©brouillerai moi-mĂȘme
I'll do it on my own, do it on my own
I see it in your eyes
Je le vois dans tes yeux
Down on your knees, you're praying for forgivness
à genoux, tu pries pour avoir ma clémence
But I won't hear your lies so watch me leave
Mais je n'entendrai pas ses mensonges, donc regarde-moi partir
And she can be my weakness
Et elle peut ĂȘtre ma faiblesse
Look what you've done to me, I played your fool
Regarde ce que tu m'as fait, je me suis conduite comme une idiote
I was blind but now I see your truth
J'étais aveugle, mais maintenant je vois ta vérité
In the part in me that belong to you
Dans la partie de moi qui t'appartient
Forever dead and gone
Ă jamais morte et partie
Not gonna set myself on fire just to keep you warm
Je ne vais pas me jeter au feu juste pour te garder au chaud
Not gonna save you from the ocean just to drown in the storm
Je ne vais pas te sauver de l'ocĂ©an juste pour me noyer dans la tempĂȘte
I'll be burning brighter, swimming, strong
Je brûlerai plus vivement, je nagerai, je serai forte
I'll be flying higher 'til I get home
Je volerai plus haut jusqu'Ă arriver chez moi
I don't need this empty feeling to carry me on
Je n'ai pas besoin de ce sentiment vide pour tenir bon
I'll do it on my own, do it on my own (Ă15)

Elle mérite tellement plus de succÚs et de reconnaissance... C'est l'une des rares chanteuses à ne pas avoir une voix "truquée" avec de l'autotune. Marina Kaye est une vraie artiste.
D T
Claire La blanche Je te signale qu'elle écrit toutes ses chansons. Elle a écrit tout son premier album "Fearless" alors à l'avenir renseigne-toi avant de dire une erreur s'il te plaßt. Et je ne vois pas pourquoi le fait de chanter en Anglais alors qu'elle est Française ne ferait pas d'elle une vraie artiste... Justement, elle se distingue des autres chanteurs/ses de son pays. De toute façon, c'est mon point de vue. Si je pense que Marina Kaye est une véritable artiste, c'est parce que je peux me retrouver dans ses textes et mélodies, sa voix est vraie et authentique. Tu n'as pas à juger les opinions des autres.
Starry&Bohemian
Non non il y'en a plein de talentueuse chanteuses sans auto-tune... c'est juste que tu ne les connais pas (encore)
D T
Starry&Bohemian Je connais et aime un nombre incalculable de chanteur/ses et je sais que leur voix n'est pas truquée à tous/toutes. Ce que je veux dire, c'est que l'autotune est parfois trop utilisé et cache leur vrai talent.
