because of you

END
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
Ive 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 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 its not too long
before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because you know that s weakness in your eyes
Im forced to fake
A smile a laugh everyday of my life
My heart cant possibly break
When it wasnt 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 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 stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
so I dont get hurt
Because of you
I try my hardest
just to forget everything
Because of you
I dont know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
Im ashamed of my life because it s empty
Because of you
I am afraid
Because of you
Because of you
