Grieving

I'm up before the morning
My eyes are on the ceiling
Thought you walked through the doorway
Guess that's a part of grieving
I keep a place for you in
The corner where I'm drinking
My first coffee

Our stars were just aligning
And now they're dissipating
Shrouded by the light of
The inner cityscape and
Time moves at its own pace
I wonder how it's feeling
Wherever you are

Oh, I'm learning how to move ahead
Learning how to grow
Learning how to lead
Life without you, friend

I haven't talked about you
In a few weeks and
Someone says your name, I
Remember how to breathe in
The wound is fairly swollen
But I've finally stopped the bleeding
Train's moving forward

Piccadilly Circus
I thought I passed you on the way home
Remember I was nervous
First time we went to dinner
Memories are stray bullets (uh)
They wound my frail subconscious
Even sleep is exhausting, oh

Oh, I'm learning how to move ahead
Learning how to grow (ohh)
Learning how to lead
Life without you, friend

And, oh, wow, the dust had barely settled in
Then you had to go
Then you had to lead
Life with someone else

(I know I'm better alone, I know I'm)
(Better alone, I know I'm)
(Oh, I know I'm, know I'm)
Better alone, I, know I'm better alone
I know I'm better alone, I, know I'm

Oh, I know I'm, know I'm
Better alone, I know I'm better alone, I, know I'm
Better alone, I, know I'm
Oh, I know I'm, know I'm (I know, I know I'm)
Better alone I, know I'm
Better alone I, know I'm (uh, yeah)

Oh, I know I, know I'm (yeah)
Better alone I, know I'm
Better alone I, know I'm (still here alone)

I'm learning how to move ahead
Learning how to grow
Learning how to lead
Life without you, friend, friend
Learning how to grow up
Learning how to lead
Life without you, friend
