[Verse 1]
It's hard startin' over when you've done it all before
It's hard stayin' sober with your mattress on the floor
It's hard to keep believin' you did the best you could
When the ones that you're leavin' are the ones you never should

[Pre-Chorus]
But that's the way it goes

[Chorus]
Sometimes, you win
Sometimes, you learn
Sometimes, the deepest darkest nights
Allow the bright stars to burn
There is freedom in the fallin'
There's redеmption to be found
Sometimes, you build your wings
On thе way down

[Verse 2]
Or is it easy startin' over 'cause you've done it all before?
You're wiser and bolder, not afraid anymore
New love is out there waiting for you to learn its name
You'll lose more than you win, but every winner plays the game

[Pre-Chorus]
And that's the way love goes
[Chorus]
Sometimes, you win
Sometimes, you learn
Sometimes, the deepest darkest nights
Allow the bright stars to burn
There is freedom in the fallin'
There's redemption to be found
Sometimes, you build your wings
On the way down

[Bridge]
When your world is crashin' 'round you
And you're fallin' from the sky
You don't have to hit the ground
If you teach yourself to fly

[Chorus]
Sometimes, you win
Sometimes, you learn
Sometimes, the deepest darkest nights
Allow the bright stars to burn
There is freedom in the fallin'
There's redemption to be found
Buildin' your wings (Buildin' your wings)
On the way down
On the way down
On the way down
