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'll 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'll 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

i told myself, i will never make the same Mistakes you did.

I will never cause my heart so much Misery, for the mistakes I made.

I learned to play on the safe side so i won't get hurt. And here i sit, in

my little Boxed up four walls, where i'm the safest. So No one can hurt me.
And i can't Hurt anyone else... But when i look up at the sky and the clouds from inside.
My Life is so empty... and i'm so afraid of being here forever like this.

Because F o r e v e r...  is such a long time....
