LEARN LYRICS

Between a call and a headache
I let you slip away
We always run off in a rush
How ugly this frenzy is
Let me bring some light into the house
Today I don't even defend myself
Always the same mistakes
Where there used to be the sea now there's only mud
And it's like a waltz on a Sunday in the suburbs
Between the bells and the police sirens
There's a little girl hugging her mother
Who looks like mine
I feel like a mannequin in a shop window
This life doesn't taste like honey, maybe like aspirin
And I've tried to learn love
But it's always like this
I can't figure it out
What it is
And how long it takes
To hold each other at night
In the street even if it rains
Without ever asking
Without ever understanding
Without understanding
I gave you a piece of my heart
I take all the blame
I tried to learn love
I tried to learn love
But it's stronger than me
The incense that wraps the room
Looks like city fog
A passing bus wakes me up
I think back to a few nights ago
When you screamed at me
"Kiddo, today I just don't get you"
You're always good at hurting
So many useless words in the wind
I still hear them
And how long it takes
To hold each other at night
In the street even if it rains
Without ever asking
Without ever understanding
Without understanding
I gave you a piece of my heart
I take all the blame
I tried to learn love
I tried to learn love
But it's stronger than me
And you, you seem more confused than me
And you, you said, "It's always like this"
And you, you still have a thousand questions
But they don't hurt anymore
And how long it takes
To hold each other at night
In the street even if it rains
Without ever asking
Without ever understanding
Without understanding
I gave you a piece of my heart
I take all the blame
Now that we've learned love
Now that we've learned love
I can't stop
