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 felt so hard
I' ve learned the hard way
so never let it get that far
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so Idon'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, Andit's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I knowthat's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heartcan't possibly break
When itwasn't even whole to start with
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so Idon'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 stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so Idon't get hurt
Because of you
I try my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
Idon't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life becauseit's empty
Because of you
I am afraid
Because of you
Because of you
