If I understood back then what is so easy to see now

I could have stopped myself from falling far behind

The changes I want will only come if I could turn things down

So I search my heart where I know he lies but then I turn around



I should have walked away

I should have walked away

I should have walked away



With each passing day I feel the way I did before

And the things that haunt me stay the same I won't let them go

I pray and ask for help but then walk down that cursed road

Where one waits with what I crave and my lusting hunger grows



I should have walked away

I should have walked away

I should have walked away



Sometimes I must give up things that I want so bad

But it's these things in the end that i wished I'd never had



I should have walked away

I should have walked away

I should have walked away
