You Learn

Alanis Morissette

I recommend getting your heart trampled on to anyone 
I recommend walking around naked in your living room 
Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill) 
It feels so good (swimming in your stomach) 
Wait until the dust settles 

You live you learn 
You love you learn 
You cry you learn 
You lose you learn 
You bleed you learn 
You scream you learn 

I recommend biting off more than you can chew to anyone 
I certainly do 
I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at anytime 
Feel free 
Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind) 
Hold it up (to the rays) 
You wait and see when the smoke clears 

You live you learn 
You love you learn 
You cry you learn 
You lose you learn 
You bleed you learn 
You scream you learn

Wear it out (like a three-year-old would do) 
Melt it down (you're gonna have to eventually anyway) 
The fire trucks are coming up around the bend 

You live you learn 
You love you learn 
You cry you learn 
You lose you learn 
You bleed you learn 
You scream you learn

You grieve you learn 
You choke you learn 
You laugh you learn 
You choose you learn 
You pray you learn 
You ask you learn 
You live you learn
