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.
Whoa,
Whoa,
Whoa,
Whoa.
With each passing day I feel the way I did the day 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.
Whoa,
Whoa,
Whoa,
Whoa.
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.
