First you fall
and then you fly.
You believe you belong up in the sky
flap your arms as you run
every revelation brings you closer to the sun.
You fall asleep in motion in uncharted hemospheres
and you wake up with the stars down around your ears
and when they hit the ground they're nothing but stones.
That's how you learn to live alone; Thats how you learn to live alone.
Bit by bit
you sleep awake
You lose yourself in pieces in words that you don't say.
You're not here but you're still there.
The sun goes up, the goes down and you're not sure you care.
You live inside the floss til you don't recongize the truth
People send you pictures and can't believe its you.
Its been years since your house has felt home.
That's how you learn to live alone; That's how you learn to live alone.
(Ooh)
It don't feel right but it's not wrong.
It's just hard to start again this far alone.
Brick by brick
The letting go
as you walk away from everything you know
and you release resistance and you lean into the wind
til the roof begins to crumble and the rain comes pouring in
and you sit there in the rumble til the rumble feels like home.
That's how you learn to live alone; That's how you learn to live alone.
