Lyrics

Learning Alive

Never been so scared to be open
Knocking down walls through to more emptiness
Tomorrow is alive but it's broken
You gotta pull yourself together
Deeper than it grows in the moment
The colors of this life and the river it winds
Tomorrow is alive and it's spoken
All the worlds are spinnin', all the world is spinnin'
All the world is spinnin'
And I just want to hold it together
How can I tell you we're getting better with time
And I'm on your side, I'm on your side
And I don't want to be here forever
How can I tell you we're getting better at life
And I'm on your side, I'm on your side
Never been so scared to be broken
Knocking down walls through to more emptiness
Tomorrow is alive but it's open
You gotta pull yourself together, pull yourself together
Pull yourself together
And I just wanna hold it forever
How can I tell you we're getting better with time
And I'm on your side, I'm on your side
And I just want to be here together
How can I tell you we're getting better at life
And I'm on your side, I'm on your side
Wait a minute more, wait a minute more
Wait a minute more
All the world is spinnin'
And I just want to hold it together
How can I tell you we're getting better with time
And I'm on your side, I'm on your side
And I don't want to be here forever
How can I tell you we're getting better at life
And I'm on your side, I'm on your side
