Oh, ohI will not make
The same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much miseryI will not break
The way you did, you fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that farBecause 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 hurtBecause of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraidI 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 eyesI'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh, every day of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start withBecause 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 hurtBecause of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraidI watched you die (I watched you die)
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young (in your sleep, I was too young)
You should have known better than to lean on me (for you to lean on me)You never thought of anyone else (you never saw me)
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thingBecause 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 hurtBecause of you
I try my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else inBecause of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraidBecause of you
Because of you
