Lyrics for Learning To Live On Your Own

The night's drawing in on the city The manager picks up his phone Everything seems such a pity Learning to live on your own News travels fast down the wire Breaks up before it hits home Throw a rock and roll song on the fire Learning to live on your own In the half light of dawn We leave this world of ours behind Please accept this message of my tears Things that take minutes last for hours A plane crashes on its way home The company still feeds on your power Learning to live on your own In the half light of dawn We leave this world of ours behind I can't see a new star in the heavens I don't hear the tributes that they owe Throw a rock and roll song on the fire Learning to live on your own Learning to live on your own
