Run for the hills they said
It's the last thing that I heard before I
Turned around and tried to leave
But darling when you're finished here
If you would be so kind then maybe
You could go on someone else's dreams
I should've seen it coming when my mother said you're headed straight for hell
You better check yourself
Or you'd better hold on tight
And if the hate inside my heart
Doesn't overtake whats left
Before I learn to let it go
Then I'll never make it out alive
And by the time I saw
The self destructive things that I had done
It felt like way past too late
Completely unaware I was a mess
Fully wrapped myself in lies
I thought I'd never escape
I should've known I swear
I should've seen it coming when my mother said you're headed straight for hell
You better check yourself
Or you'd better hold on tight
And if the hate inside my heart
Doesn't overtake what's left
Before I learn to let it go
Then I'll never make it out alive
Maybe if I prayed a little more
Maybe if I tried a little harder
Maybe if I hadn't been so wrapped up in the sins with all I loved Maybe if I tried to take back some of the hurtful things I say
To all the people all around every time I drink to much
Maybe if I shut my mouth and listened to the things you had to say
Instead of swearing I'd known better
Lying to myself that I have changed
And maybe if I opened up my eyes and see you standing right there
I wouldn't have felt lost for so long
I should've known I swear
I should've seen it coming when my mother said I'm headed straight for hell
You better check yourself or you better hold on tight
And if the hate inside my heart
Doesn't overtake whats left
Before I learn to let it go
Then I'll never make it out alive
And I'll never make it out alive
