“bad days” is the 13th track on the album and 5th track on the “PITCH BLACK” chapter.
It talks about the difficulties of moving on from the separation and gradually forgetting about your ex. Tove hardly can do this and she is kind of jealous of the people who easily manage to forget and move on fro...
[Verse 1]
You used to love me on my bad days
When the sun wouldn't come out
When I was called to make a statement
I'd wait for you to figure out
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Why what you said just a minute ago
Triggered feelings from before
From the time you don't remember
Well I forgot, but can't let go
[Chorus]
If it was easy, I'd forget about you, baby
But I never really understood
How people move on from a heart to love another
Oh, if I could, I would
If it was easy, I'd forget about you, baby
But I never really understood
How people move on from a heart to love another
Oh, if I could, I would
[Verse 2]
I picked at all that I could think of
I guess I picked that up from you
No one could make me feel so useless
I know I did it to you too
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Why cuts so deep every word that we speak?
Triggers shit we never thought
I still remember all the good times
If not, I'll recreate 'em all
[Chorus]
If it was easy, I'd forget about you, baby
But I never really understood
How people move on from a heart to love another
Oh, if I could, I would
If it was easy, I'd forget about you, baby
But I never really understood
How people move on from a heart to love another
Oh, if I could, I would
[Post-Chorus]
If I could, I would
Oh, if I could, I would
[Bridge]
Yeah, I try
But we're in the same crowd
Always at the same scene
So I don't know how
I'm supposed to act fine
When we used to be burning love
That died
Colder than ice
Why am I surprised?
But I guess that's how
I guess that's how we do it now
[Chorus]
If it was easy, I'd forget about you, baby
But I never really understood
How people move on from a heart to love another
Oh, if I could, I would
If it was easy, I'd forget about you, baby
But I never really understood
How people move on from a heart to love another
Oh, if I could, I would
If I could, I would
