Everything Changes

Staind · Chapter V [2005]

If you just walked away

What could I really say?

Would it matter anyway?

Would it change how you feel?



'Cause I am the mess you chose

The closet you cannot close

The devil in you I suppose

'Cause the wounds never heal



But everything changes, if I could

Turn back the years, if you could

Learn to forgive me, then I could

Learn to feel



Sometimes the things I say

In moments of disarray

Succumbing to the games we play

To make sure that it's real



But everything changes, if I could

Turn back the years, if you could

Learn to forgive me, then I could

Learn to feel



[Guitar solo]



When it's just me and you

Who knows what we could do?

If we can just make it through

The toughest part of the day



But everything changes, if I could

Turn back the years, if you could

Learn to forgive me, then I could

Learn how to feel, then we could

Stay here together, and we could

Conquer the world if we could

Say that forever is more than

Just a word



So if you just walked away

What could I really say?

It wouldn't matter anyway

It wouldn't change how you feel
