Song Meaning
A grief-stricken narrator counts the days since a loss — one hundred and seven of them — and still can't make the heart accept what the mind already knows. Daylight arrives as something to dread, midnight waits to drag them back under, and the usual distractions (channel-surfing, turning pages) only waste the hours instead of drying the pain. The song circles a promise of forever that ended at goodbye, leaving the singer begging to move on while secretly wishing they could close their eyes and wake up to find none of it real. The chorus repeats the same unanswerable question — how do you live life without someone — and the bridge offers the only exit it can imagine: if the hurt would end and wholeness return, if only letting go were possible. There is no tidy resolution here, just the raw arithmetic of absence and a faith-adjacent plea for the strength to release what can't be held anymore.

Day light
Already I'm afraid to face another
Midnight
Waiting just to pull me right back under
I flipped the channels
I turned the pages tried to dry my pain
All I get is wasted
Why can't I get my heart to see
That it's got to learn to be without you
It's been one hundred and seven days
But I haven't found a way just how to
(It's killin' me slow)
We said forever 'till the end
Now it's back to the start all over again
So tell me how do I live life without you
Goodbye
Wasn't part of the plan you promised
Now I
Beg myself to move on but all I want is
To close my eyes and wake up believing
None of this was real
I was only dreaming all this time
Why can't I get my heart to see
That it's got to learn to be without you
It's been one hundred and seven days
But I haven't found a way just how to
(It's killin' me slow)
We said forever 'till the end
Now it's back to the start all over again
So tell me how do I live life without you
If all this hurt would end
And I'd be whole again
If only I could let you go
How can I get my heart to see
That it's got to learn to be without you
It's been one hundred and seven days
But I haven't found a way just how to
Ohohohohohohohoh...
(It's killin' me slow)
We said forever 'till the end
Now it's back to the start all over again
So tell me how do I live life without you
Oh tell me how do I live life without you
