Uh, uh, uh...
I will not make the same mistakes 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 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
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
Over the same d*** 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 don't get hurt
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
Because of you
I will not make the same mistakes 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 learned the hard way to never let it get that far.
