Should've Been Me

By Citizen Way

I've read the story

I've seen the movie

I give to charity

And tithe my ten percent

These I remember

But I so easily forget

All these years never heard it like this


It should've been me

It should've been us

Should've been there hanging on a cross

All of this shame

All of these scars

Should've been stains that were never washed

Why do I hide

Why do you try

Over and over and over again

I guess it just leaves me saying thank God

It leaves me saying thank God, thank God

For the should've been


I live a good life

I love a great wife

Our kids are beautiful

We got friends down the street

If I'm so thankful

Why do I easily forget

That you died for all of this


For this heart you changed

This soul you raised

My God for taking my place
