Its easier to run, replacing this pain with something numb.

Its so much easier to go, than face all this pain here all alone.

Something has been taken from deep inside of me,

A secret i've kept locked away,

That no one can ever see.

Wounds so deep they never show,

They never go away.

Like moving pictures in my head,

For years and years they've played...

If I could change I would,

Take back the pain I would,

retrace every wrong move that I made, I would,

If I could,

Stand up and take the blame, I would,

If I could take all my shame to the grave, I would

If I could change I would,

Take back the pain I would,

retrace every wrong move that I made, I would,

If I could,

Stand up and take the blame, I would,

If I could take all my shame to the grave...

Its easier to run, replacing this pain with something numb.

Its so much easier to go, than face all this pain here all alone.

Sometimes I remember the darkness of my past,

Bringing back these memories

I wish i didn't have.

Sometimes I think of letting go, and never looking back,

And never moving forward, so there'd never be a past...

If I could change I would,

Take back the pain I would,

retrace every wrong move that I made, I would,

If I could,

Stand up and take the blame, I would,

If I could take all my shame to the grave, I would

If I could change I would,

Take back the pain I would,

retrace every wrong move that I made, I would,

If I could,

Stand up and take the blame, I would,

If I could take all my shame to the grave...

Just WASHING it aside,

All of the HELPLESSNESS inside,

Pretending I don't feel MISPLACED

Is so much simpler than CHANGE.

Its easier to run, replacing this pain with something numb.

Its so much easier to go, than face all this pain here all alone.

Its easier to run...

If I could change I would,

Take back the pain I would,

retrace every wrong move that I made...

Its easier to go...

If I could change I would,

Take back the pain I would,

retrace every wrong move that I made, I would,

If I could,

Stand up and take the blame, I would,

If I could take all my shame to the grave.
