Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Haven't seen your face in awhile
But I think that's good for me
Seems when you're gone I'm feeling better
Maybe I misunderstood
Try harder I think I could
Sometimes emotions don't last forever
There's just one more thing to say
Then I'll get out of your way

You're on your own now
Don't you ever come back

Sometiems when I look back
I see that you were there for me
And I begin to question my intentions
Now and then I imagine your smile
Then I want you back for a while
Maybe even just for one minute
There's just one more thing to say
Then I'll get out of your way

You're on your own now
Don't you ever come back

Overall Meaning

The Undecided's song "So Alone" is a poignant reflection on a past relationship. The lyrics reveal that the singer hasn't seen their former partner in a while, but rather than feeling upset about it, they believe it's for the best. The singer has come to realize that they feel better when their ex is not around, which suggests that the relationship may have been toxic or unhappy. Even though the singer acknowledges that their emotions might change in the future, they insist that their ex should stay away.

The second verse of the song reveals that the singer has moments of nostalgia as they remember the good times they shared with their ex. However, this doesn't mean they want to get back together. They simply want to savor the happy memories for a while. The final few lines of the song make it clear that the relationship is over, and the ex-partner should not attempt to come back. The tone of the song is bittersweet, with a hint of melancholy, suggesting that the singer has come to terms with the end of the relationship, but it still stings at times.

Haven't seen your face in awhile
It's been awhile since I've seen you

But I think that's good for me
I believe it's better for me not to see you

Seems when you're gone I'm feeling better
It appears that I feel better when you're not around

Maybe I misunderstood
Possibly I didn't understand the situation

Try harder I think I could
I feel like I could try harder

Sometimes emotions don't last forever
At times feelings can be fleeting

There's just one more thing to say
I have one final message

Then I'll get out of your way
After I deliver my message, I'll leave you alone

You're on your own now
You're independent now

Don't you ever come back
Never return

Sometimes when I look back
Occasionally when I reminisce
