because of you
i will not make the same mistakes that you did
i will not let myself cause my heart so much misery
i will not break the way you did you fell so hard
i've learnt the hard way, to never let it get so far
because of you, i never strayed too far from the sidewalk
because of you, i learned to play on the safe side so i don't get hurt
because of you, i find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
because of you, i am afraid
i lose my way and it's not too long before you point it out
i cannot cry, because i know that's weakness in your eyes
i'm forced to fake, a smile, a laugh, everyday of my life
my heart can't possibly break, when it wasn't even whole to start with
because of you, i never strayed too far from the sidewalk
because of you, i learned to play on the safe side so i don't get hurt
because of you, i find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
because of you, i am afraid
i watched you die, i heard you cry every night in your sleep
i was so young, you should have known better than to lean on me
you never thought of anyone else, you just saw your pain
and now i cry in the middle of the night, for the same damn thing
because of you, i never strayed too far from the sidewalk
because of you, i learned to play on the safe side so i don't get hurt
because of you, i tried my hardest just to forget everything
because of you, i don't know how to let anyone else in
because of you, i'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
because of you, i am afraid
because of you
because of you
