It's easier to run Replacing this pain with something numb It’s so much easier to run Replace all this pain here all alone
Something has been taken from deep inside of me The secret I’ve kept locked away where one could never see moved so deep, never show, They never go away Like moving pictures in my head For years and years they've played
[Mike’s part] If I could change I would Take out 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 out 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 the shame to the grave
It's easier to run replacing this pain with something good It’s so much easier to go Then face all this pain here all alone
Some things I remember but thought the soul bypassed Bringing back these memories I wish I didn’t have Sometimes I think I’m letting go and never looking back And never moving forward so there'd never be a past
[Mike’s part] If I could change I would Take all 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 all 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
Just washing it aside All of the helplessness inside Pretending I don’t feel misplaced Is so much simpler than change
It's easier to run replacing this pain with something good It’s so much easier to go Than face all this pain here all alone
It's easier to run
If I could change I would Take all the pain I would Retrace every wrong move that I made
It's easier to go
If I could change I would Take all 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
