Possession is one of five songs on Lena Fayre's EP titled, "Is There Only One?", released in late July 2015. Here's what Fayre had to say about the song: "I wish I could say that she is the other woman, but in fact I am. What you see on the EP cover is a real Instagram photo of the real girl taken by the real boy who inspired this collection of music. She isn't me; I will never be her. Obsession, possession, denial, heartbreak landed me in a position to write and express my way through a difficult situation. He chose her. The songs of Is There Only One? reflect my state of mind as I processed, questioned, and eventually found peace with such a visceral experience with rejection. This led me to think about the structure of relationships, attachment, and how the modern romance is diluted or enhanced by social media. Sometimes the things we do in the name of lust or love forsake reason and logic. We have the most hope despite our knowledge. I had the most hope."
Lena Fayre, Noah Georgeson

You don’t own anything
Nothing is meant to be
Holding hands with broken arms
A generation of stars
Yes (yes, yes, yes, yes, yes)
I am free
You can watch me be
Am I an icon of this movement?
I am an icon of his movement
Do you want what I’ve got?
I will help you play along
But as long as I am free
Just don’t expect anything from me
Baby, are you happy now?
Baby, are you happy now?
Baby, are you happy now?
Baby, are you happy now?
You don’t own anything
Nothing is meant to be
Holding hands with broken arms
A generation of stars
Don’t you see?
I’m revolutionary
To forsake the longing
Your standards of belonging
I thought about you once
That’s all, it didn’t mean much
Don’t tell me what you want
Cuz I do it all for me and me for all
Baby, are you happy now?
Baby, are you happy now?
Baby, are you happy now?
Baby, are you happy now?
Baby, are you happy now?
Baby, are you happy now?
