How

They say...
Get up out of that bed, turn the lights on
You gotta try to forget when it ain't long
Don't you beat yourself up asking questions
Less it's gonna come your way again, oh

They say...
Step outside of your door, let the light in
You never really escape when you're hiding
All I want is to be set free
from this pain that is haunting me

[Chorus]
Can you tell me how...
When I am broken down and all hope is over
Can you tell me how...
Too many pieces of my heart to put back together

If I could I'd take hold of myself
Put me out of this living hell
Can you tell me how...

Can you tell me how?
How, how, how, how, how, how, 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 wanna try

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

[Chorus]
Can you tell me how...
When I am broken down and all hope is over
Can you tell me how...
Too many pieces of my heart to put back together

If I could I'd take hold of myself
Put me out of this living hell
Can you tell me how...
Can you tell me how?

How do I leave this love behind?
Can you tell me how?
