Easier To Run (Meteora)

It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It’s so much easier to go
Then face this pain here all alone

Something has been taken from deep inside of me
The secret I’ve kept locked away no one could never 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 the shame to the grave
It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It’s so much easier to go
Then 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 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 the shame to the grave

Just washing it aside
All of the helplessness since i've
Pretending I don’t feel misplaced
It’s so much simpler than change

It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It’s so much easier to run
Then face all this pain here all alone

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 easier to run

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 the shame to the grave...
