**It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's 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
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 the 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
I would take all my shame to the grave*

**Chorus**

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 would never be a past

*Bridge*

Just washing it aside
All of the helplessness inside
Pretending I don't feel misplaced
Is so much simpler than change

**Chorus**

It's easier to run 
If I could change I would
Take back the pain I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made 

It's so much 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
I would take all my shame, to the grave
