How You Learn To Live Alone

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
