How lyrics

They say

Get up out of that bed turn the lights on

Gotta try to forget where it went wrong

Don’t you beat yourself up asking questions

Love’s gonna come your way again, oh

They say

Step outside of your door let the light in

You never really escape when you hide in

All I want is to be set free

From this pain that is haunting me

Can you tell me how?

When I am looking down and all hope is over

Can you tell me how?

Ten million pieces of my heart to put back together

If I could I’d take hold of myself

Pull me out of this living hell

Can you tell me how?

Can you tell me how?

They say

If you open your heart to the healing

Time will take all those scars you’ve been wearing

Please don’t tell me how I should be feeling

I’m not sure I even want to try, oh

They say

You just gotta let go and move on

You’re only hurting yourself when you hold on

All I want is to lose this pain

Every drop of it washed away, yeah

Can you tell me how?

When I am looking down and all hope is over

Can you tell me how?

Ten million pieces of my heart to put back together

If I could I’d take hold of myself

Pull me out of this living hell

Can you tell me how?

Can you tell me how?

How do I leave this love behind, how?

Can you tell me how?
