How Many Days

Day one, shoulda gone for a run
But I just sat here drenched in misery
Day two, and now I'm callin' you
If just to hear you on the answerin' machine
'Cause by day three
I'm lost beneath the debris
Of all my tears and all my sanity
And by day four
It's getting hard to ignore
The bruise from banging my head on the door

Oh I can't think straight
When I'm under this weight
Memories of the past surround me
Oh I can't sit still
No, this can't be real
And time's been moving without me
How many days does it take
To bring a heart back to life
Oh oh yeah

Day five, I think I've lost my mind
Cause every face I see looks just like yours
Day six, I wish I knew how to fix
A broken love that used to be so pure
'Cause by day seven
I can't even remember when
The last time I felt alive was
And by day eight
I pray this isn't my fate
Life doesn't work out like I thought it does

Oh I can't think straight
When I'm under this weight
Memories of the past surround me
Oh I can't sit still
No, this can't be real
And time's been moving without me
How many days does it take
To bring a heart back to life
How many days does it take
To bring a heart back to life
Oh oh oh

And I still read through
Every note from you
Wish your words still meant what they used to
And tears flood my eyes
Every time that I
See her hand in place of mine
How many days does it take
How many days does it take yeah
To bring a heart back to life

Oh I can't think straight
When I'm under this weight
Memories of the past surround me
Oh I can't sit still
No, this can't be real
And time's been moving without me
How many days does it take
To bring a heart back to life
Nine days and countin
Ten days is all I can take, oh oh yeah
