Mine
Ryan Phoebe Lyrics

When it went down
She is referring to a tough moment in her life

It was so hard to breathe
The tough moment left her feeling depleted

I gave up everything
She sacrificed a lot in order to deal with the tough moment

And I flow fall down to the floor
The tough moment knocked her off her feet and left her feeling vulnerable

Life was escaping me
The tough moment made her feel like her life was slipping away from her

I couldn't find myself
She felt lost and unsure of who she was

Till it was all lost
She reached a point where everything seemed hopeless

Not anymore
She has reached a place where she feels stronger and more hopeful

I'm holding on to all the pieces of my heart's debris
She is trying to put the broken pieces of her heart back together

Till it's time
She knows it will take time to completely heal

I'll… I'll pull it together and fix myself eventually
She is determined to fix and heal herself

I know it's mine
Despite the difficulty, she is confident that she will come out stronger

I found gold in the wreckage
Despite the tough moment, she found something valuable

Put it on a necklace
She wants to keep this valuable thing close to her heart

Keepin' it cause I-I-I, I know that it's mine
She is holding onto this valuable thing because she knows it is important for her healing process

I wear it like a message
She wears the valuable thing as a reminder of what she has been through and how far she has come

So I don't forget it
She does not want to forget the valuable lesson she learned from the tough moment

I know that it's mine no matter what I do
She knows that she will always have this valuable thing no matter what happens

I know that it's mine whether I win or lose
This valuable thing is not dependent on her success or failures

And even though my heart needs to take its time
She is giving herself time to heal

I know that it's mi-i-ine, I know that it's mine
She repeats this line to emphasize how important it is to her to hold onto this valuable thing

Facing the train
She is facing something difficult head on

But it's still tough to see
It is still difficult for her to face this difficult thing

At first I fought it all
She initially resisted dealing with this difficult thing

I was so mean
She was hard on herself for not being able to handle the difficult thing initially

I'm still unsure
She is still uncertain about how to handle the difficult thing

How it's supposed to be?
She is questioning what the right way to handle the difficult thing is

But digging everyday now by the skin of my teeth
She is trying to make progress, even if it feels like a small step at a time
