[00:00.00] | Because Of You |
[00:13.21] | I will not make |
[00:17.23] | The same mistakes that you did |
[00:20.82] | I will not let myself |
[00:24.69] | Cause my heart so much misery |
[00:27.57] | I will not break |
[00:30.86] | The way you did, you fell so hard |
[00:34.85] | I’ve learned the hard way |
[00:38.02] | To never let it get that far |
[00:41.11] | Because of you |
[00:44.15] | I never stray too far from the sidewalk |
[00:48.67] | Because of you |
[00:50.74] | I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt |
[00:55.16] | Because of you |
[00:57.58] | I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me |
[01:01.33] | Because of you I am afraid |
[01:08.49] | I lose my way |
[01:13.44] | And it’s not too long before you point it out |
[01:18.10] | I can not cry |
[01:20.22] | Because I know that’s weakness in your eyes |
[01:24.92] | I’m forced to fake |
[01:27.20] | A smile, a laugh, every day of my life |
[01:31.83] | My heart can’t possibly break |
[01:34.22] | When it wasn’t even whole to start with |
[01:37.47] | Because of you |
[01:40.46] | I never stray too far from the sidewalk |
[01:44.66] | Because of you |
[01:47.28] | I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt |
[01:51.25] | Because of you |
[01:53.86] | I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me |
[01:59.27] | Because of you I am afraid |
[02:05.24] | I watched you die |
[02:07.87] | I heard you cry every night in your sleep |
[02:11.23] | I was so young |
[02:14.44] | You should have known better than to lean on me |
[02:18.66] | You never thought of anyone else |
[02:23.02] | You just saw your pain |
[02:25.61] | And now I cry in the middle of the night |
[02:29.55] | For the same damn thing |
[02:33.89] | Because of you |
[02:38.42] | I never stray too far from the sidewalk |
[02:42.76] | Because of you |
[02:45.08] | I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt |
[02:49.32] | Because of you |
[02:51.98] | I try my hardest just to forget everything |
[02:55.93] | Because of you |
[02:58.64] | I don’t know how to let anyone else in |
[03:03.41] | Because of you |
[03:05.85] | I’m ashamed of my life because it’s empty |
[03:09.99] | Because of you |
[03:12.76] | I am afraid |
[03:16.48] |
[00:00.00] | Because Of You |
