Lyrics

Don't be lonely, my mother told me
Choosing lonely is the worst thing you can do
Find a sweetheart, start a family
When the lights go out, have someone next to you
Found a lover who became a mother
A little house, a tire swing, a maple tree
I hold my baby, touch my lady
Late at night it's just loneliness and me
And I'm learning to be lonely
I am learning it's okay to be lonely
Don't be scared son, a fathers warning
You'll never make it in this world if you're afraid
Be a man, kid, quit you're crying
I love my dad, I needed him so I obeyed
Got a good job, make six figures
Can't shake the feeling that it all one day could end
I never show it in the daylight
The fear comes crashing in each night at three am
And I'm learning to be scared
I am learning it's okay to be scared
All my old friends were so happy
I followed them from town to town and place to place
I had a sadness I couldn't show them
I wore a mask so long that it became my face
Now it's different, the glaciers' melting
Men can handle things the boy could never bear
It gets dark now an hour early
Light my way home, Lord, that's my only prayer
And I'm learning to be sad
I am learning it's okay to be sad
I am learning it's okay to be lonely
To be sad, to be scared, to be lonely
To be sad, to be scared, to be lonely and afraid
To be a human being who feels everything
I am learning, I'm still learning, I am learning
I am learning, I'm still learning, I'm still learning
