Should've Been Me

I've read the story, I've seen the movie
 Given to charity, and tithe my ten percent
 These I remember
 But I so easily forget
 All this years never heard it like this
 Should've been me, 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 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
 Oh, that you died for all of this
 When it should've been me, 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
 Leaves me saying thank God
 For this heart you changed
 This soul you raised
 My God for taking my place
 When it should've been me, should've been us
 Should've been there hanging on a cross
 All of this shame, all of this scars
 Should've been stains that were never washed
 It should've been me, should've been us
 Should've been hanging there 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
 Leaves me saying thank God
 I guess it just leaves me saying thank God
 For the should've been
 For the should've been
