The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Bad Days" by the artist "Tove Lo"

Contents

In "Bad Days," Tove Lo delves into the tumultuous aftermath of a relationship. The lyrics paint a picture of the protagonist grappling with lingering feelings and memories of her ex-lover that resurface unexpectedly. She questions how people move on so easily, finding new love while she remains tethered to the past.

The protagonist acknowledges her own flaws within the relationship, admitting to being "picking fights in her head," a trait she believes she adopted from her ex. She recognizes the pain they inflicted upon each other. Despite the negativity, she clings to the good memories, replaying them as a coping mechanism.

The constant presence of her ex in shared social circles and familiar settings hinders her healing process. She feels trapped by her emotions, yearning for a simpler reality where she could effortlessly erase him from her heart and move on.

[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
