because of you

I will not ____ the same mistakes that you did
   I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not ____ 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 never ____ too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to ____ 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 ____
And it s not too long before you point it out
I cannot ____
Because you know that s weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to ____
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly ____
When it wasn't even whole to start with
Because of you
I never ____ too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to ____ 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 ____
I heard you ____ 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 never ____ too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to ____ on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I try my hardest just to forget ____
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone ____
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it s empty
Because of you
I am afraid
Because of you
Because of you
