{Refrain:}
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 got 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
If I could take all the shame to the grave

{au Refrain}

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

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
If I could take all the 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

{au Refrain, x2}

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
