Song lyrics
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

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

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
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 numb
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 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

This song is kind of like a theme song for me. I do try to avoid things when they get tough, and I admit that it is the easy way out. The lyrics really touch me, which is half the reason why I love this song so much. The whole song is an outline of depression and haunting memories. Very realistic song, many people could relate to it, I'm sure. I'm proven as one of them.

Such a depressing song..it makes me sad listening to it. But it also makes me think about the own dark memories I have about my life.
Deep. Wicked song.

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

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

I would take all my shame to the grave!

I almost relate to all their texts, but this especially, it's almost like it's written by me.
Sometimes I think of thaking all the shame to the grave, it's so much easier to run.

I feel ashamed, I can't tell, it's locked inside. Nobody can ever see these wounds.
I would rather take all the shame to the grave.
Easier to run, replacing this pain with something numb.

Retrace every wrong move that I made I would, is it my fault, and not his?
Was I the one doing something wrong, if I had done something different it may not happened.
These thought keep spinning in my head, but better not to think, so much easier to run

i see you guys have said that this song is about cutting...but to me, the first verse and the chorus sound slike its more about brooding about the past and trying to change it all...just my opinion...yeah this song, along with part of me and carousel are the greatest linkin park songs

Just washing it aside
All of the helplessness inside
Pretending i dont feel misplaced
Its so much simpiler than change.

I feel this is the greatest Linkin Park song writin... and when Chester sings that part^ i get goosebumps everytime... best part of the song.

It's easier to run Replacing this pain whit something numb
It's so much easier to go Than face all this pain here all alone


I really really Love this song..
I heard it for the first time last week..
(couldnt get the cd untill then)
And i got trapped in the lyrics..
First i thought "Breaking The Habit" was the best son
But now when i've heard this song i've changed..
I just got to say this song is SO great
