Been a year since the misery
Since I had it on top
I felt the weight of the history
Can’t find a way to make it stop
Then comes a man with a cigarette
He got the lily-white tie
Yea he’s the one
but you don’t know it yet
You keep on asking him “why?”
He said...
So if you wanna get a little bit closer
You’re gonna have to try
And if you’re gonna be
the one left standing
You gotta learn to live again
I wanna learn to live again.
Now everybody wants a piece of me
Now everybody’s in shock
You took the fun out of the mystery
You lost the keys to the lock
Then comes a man with a cigarette
He got them family ties
Makes you an offer
that you won’t regret
Just sign the dotted line
He said...
So if you wanna get a little bit closer
You’re gonna have to try
And if you’re gonna be
the one left standing
You gotta learn to live again
I wanna learn to live again
So you’re gonna be the broken hearted
And you’re back to right
where you started
I could use a little scenery
Man I could use a little time
Took a ticket on a runaway train
Just to fade you from my mind.
So if you wanna get a little bit closer
You’re gonna have to try
And if you’re gonna be
the one left standing
You gotta learn to live again
So if you wanna get a little bit closer
You’re gonna have to try
And if you’re gonna be
the one left standing
You gotta learn to live again
I wanna learn to live again
I wanna learn to live again
Been a year since the misery
Since I had it on top.
