Because of You Songtext
von David Hodges

I will not make the same mistake 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 have learned the hard way to never let it get that far
Because of you
I never stray too far from the side wall
Because of you
I have learned to play on the safe side so I don′t get hurt
Because of you
I have found it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me
Because of you I'm afraid
I lose my way
And it′s too long before you pointed it out
I can not cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh, everyday 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 side wall


Because of you
I have learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I have found it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me
Because of you I′m afraid
I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was too 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
Mmmmm
Because of you
Because of you
I try my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
Am ashamed of my life
Because it′s empty
Because of you
I am afraid
Because of you
I am afraid
Because of you
Because of you
