The story behind the song

"On Our Own" finds a quiet strength in facing life's difficulties, suggesting that while there is "pain here and suffering too," there's also "more to life than truth" alone. It's a poignant reflection on self-reliance and the personal journey, acknowledging the weight of existence but choosing to find meaning beyond it. This intimate, narrative style is characteristic of Bruno Major's debut album, A Song For Every Moon, where the song first appeared. It plays like a gentle, reassuring whisper to oneself in moments of solitude.
