Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Most days there's a voice in my head
Most days nothing turns out right
Most days, and most nights
And most days I don't even dare try
Most days just seem to go by
Most days I can hardly get through
Yeah tell me what it takes to forget you
Tell me what it takes to move on
Tell me what it takes to let go
Most days get the better of me
Most days I just wanna be free
Most days I just feel so sad
Most days, it's so bad
Most days I don't even go out
Stare into the mirror while I scream and shout
Most days I can hardly get through
Most days I just think about you
Yeah tell me what it takes to forget you
Tell me what it takes to move on
Tell me what it takes to let go
Most days I just think about you
Yeah tell me what it takes to forget you
Cos I really gotta find a way to move on
Tell me what it takes to let go
And before you go
I want you to know
I'm leaving no prints as I enter
I'm out of focus and I'm way left of center
And every little strand of hair
You left behind, they're everywhere
You can't just come into my life
Stab me in the heart and then twist the knife
Yeah tell me what it takes to forget you
Tell me what it takes to move on
Tell me what it takes to let go
Most days I just think about you
Yeah tell me what it takes to forget you
Cos I really gotta find a way to move on
Tell me what it takes to let go
