While you was gone you must have done a lot of favors
You got a whole lot of things
I don't think that you could ever have paid for
While you've been busy crying about my past mistakes
I've been busy trying to make a change
And now I've made the change

I've been riding with the ghost
I've been doing whatever he told me
I've been looking door to door to see
If there was someone who'd hold me
I never met a single one who didn't see through me
None of them would love me if they thought they might lose me
Unless I made a change

See I ain't getting better, I am only getting behind
Standing on a crossroad trying to make up my mind
I'm trying to remember how it got so late
Why every night pain comes from a different place
Now something's got to change

I put my foot to the floor
To make up for the miles I've been losing
I've been running out of things I didn't even know I was using
While you've been busy learning how to complain
I've been busy learning how to make the change
And now I've made the change
