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 I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'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 with

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 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
