켈리클락슨 - 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 learned the hard way To 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 it's not too long before you point it out

I cannot cry Because you 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 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 elseYou 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 farf rom the sidewalk

Because of you I learned to playon the safe side so I don't get hurt

Because of you I find it hard to trust not only mebut everyone around me

Because of you I am afraid
