Lyrics

[00:15.700] I will not make the same mistakes that you did
[00:21.300] I will not let myself
[00:25.500] Cause my heart so much misery
[00:29.300] I will not break the way you did
[00:33.950] You fell so hard
[00:36.300] I've learned the hard way
[00:38.950] To never let it get that far
[00:43.000] Because of you
[00:44.950] I never stray too far from the sidewalk
[00:49.950] Because of you
[00:51.600] I learned to play on the safe side so I don t get hurt
[00:56.950] Because of you
[00:58.500] I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
[01:04.050] Because of you
[01:06.950] I am afraid
[01:12.300] I lose my way
[01:14.750] And it s not too long before you point it out
[01:18.900] I cannot cry
[01:21.750] Because you know that s weakness in your eyes
[01:25.800] I'm forced to fake
[01:28.500] A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
[01:32.850] My heart can't possibly break
[01:35.500] When it wasn't even whole to start with
[01:39.900] Because of you
[01:41.600] I never stray too far from the sidewalk
[01:46.500] Because of you
[01:48.300] I learned to play on the safe side so I don t get hurt
[01:53.400] Because of you
[01:55.300] I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
[02:00.500] Because of you
[02:03.600] I am afraid
[02:07.550] I watched you die
[02:09.100] I heard you cry every night in your sleep
[02:13.850] I was so young
[02:15.800] You should have known better than to lean on me
[02:20.950] You never thought of anyone else
[02:24.100] You just saw your pain
[02:27.600] And now I cry in the middle of the night
[02:31.500] For the same damn thing
[02:37.800] Because of you
[02:39.900] I never stray too far from the sidewalk
[02:44.800] Because of you
[02:46.600] I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
[02:51.600] Because of you
[02:53.600] I try my hardest just to forget everything
[02:58.400] Because of you
[03:00.350] I don't know how to let anyone else in
[03:05.350] Because of you
[03:07.350] I'm ashamed of my life because it s empty
[03:12.600] Because of you
[03:14.400] I am afraid
[03:19.450] Because of you
[03:26.350] Because of you
