How You Learn To Live Alone Lyrics - Trouble & Love - Mary Gauthier

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 uncharted hemispheres 

And wake up with the stars falling down around your ears 

When they hit the ground they're nothing 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 loose yourself in pieces in the things that you don't say 

You're not here, but you're still there 

The sun goes up, the sun goes down 

And you're not sure you care 

You live inside the false, till you don't recognize the true 

People send you pictures, and you can't believe it's you 

It's been years since your house has felt like home 

That's how you learn to live alone 

That's how you learn to live alone 

Photos 

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 

You release resistance, lean into the wind 

Till the roof begins to crumble and the rain comes pouring 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
