Jonathan Jackson - How You Learn To Live Alone lyrics

First you fall, then you fly And you believe that you belong Up in the sky Flap your arms, as you run Every revolution brings you closer to the sun You fall asleep in motion, in unchartered Hemispheres And you wake up with the stars Fallin' down around your ears And when they hit the ground They're nothin' but stones That's how you learn to live alone That's how you learn to live alone Bit by bit, you slip away You lose yourself in pieces By the things that you don't say You're not here, but you're still there The sun goes up and the sun goes down But you're not sure you care You live inside the false Till you recognize the truth People send you pictures But you can't believe it's you Seems forever since your house Has felt like home That's how you learn to live alone That's how you learn to live alone It don't feel right, but it's not wrong It's just hard to start again this far along Brick by brick, the letting go As you walk away from everything you know When you release resistance And you lean into the wind Till the roof begins to crumble And the rain comes pourin' in And you sit there in the rubble Till the rubble feels like home That's how you learn to live alone That's how you learn to live alone That's how you learn to live alone
