On Your Own serves as the opener for CDW. She sings with an angelic voice on this track with the lyrics, "You know it's hard when you're gone/ You know I've tired but you're on your own".


Work is a R&B song with a soulful vibe that talks about working hard while also having patience along the way with the help of someone that you love as Charlotte sings, "It's gonna take a bit of work/ Oh, oh, work/ Now that you're here/ Woah, oh, work/ Cause people come and go/ But I think you should know/ That I/ I think this will work".

After All is about Charlotte trying to get back time with her friends by socializing again after spending some time inside with herself with the lyrics, "It's running through your veins/ Like the wind up harbor/ Taking me/ Oh, how I just need a little rest/ Before this gets harder/ Harder/ Isn't it funny how it goes?/ The open-ended closed/ Forcin' you/ To enter as you go/ Take the wind/ The wind up harbor/ Take it in/ Before this gets harder", and then she sings on the chorus with, "And after all/ You're the one I call/ Home is dull/ When the waves don't spill/ Now wash it all/ All away, all away now".

Where Do You Go is where the singer finds herself begging for her lover to come back to her singing, "Where did you go today?/ Must have been lost, the wayfarer strays, I/ I don't know the words to say/ So, "Nothing", I say, it's better that way, but/ Baby please, I know, I know/ So take me please, I'll go, I'll go".


Find You is about Charlotte describing about how she misses her love interest so much singing, "5 o'clock, I'm falling off/ That early morning/ Late night missing you/ I call your phone/ (call your phone)/ But you're talking slow/ (talking slow)/ My body yearns/ (Body yearns)/ On the low/ (on the low)/ For your soul/ (for your soul)/ But I messed up and talk back/ Then I retract/ I'm sipping still, to get to you/ But it's me I was looking for/ It's me I was looking for", and then picks it up on the chorus with, "Now that I can see, I can find you/ Follow where it lands, right beside you/ Now that I can breathe, I can sigh too/ And swallow up the sands there that hide you/ Now that I can see, I can find you".
