about

Surviving a breakup seems like the hardest thing in the world, one that will never end. But there's hope, light at the end of the tunnel of darkness.

lyrics

THE LESSON

It’s a lesson to be learned
No one said it’s easy to love
Everyone gets burned
When the heat is turned way up

It’s the time
When you’re out on your own
Your heart turns to stone
For a while…

You can’t see
That there’s light up ahead
All you know is the darkness inside…

Sit alone in your room
Read a book from start to the end
Stare up at the moon
Don’t return a call from a friend

It’s the time
When you’re out on your own
Your heart turns to stone
For a while…

You can’t see
That there’s light up ahead
All you know is the darkness inside…

[Musical Bridge]

It’s a lesson to be learned
Listen hard to the sound of your voice
Catch the tremble and the urge
You’re convinced that you have no choice

But in time
When you’re out on your own
Your heart turns to stone
For a while

You can’t see
That there’s light up ahead
All you know is the darkness inside…

Ooohhhh, yeaaaahhhh….
