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 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 i find it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me...because of you i'm afraid...
i lose my way and its not too long before you point it out... i can't 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...
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 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 try 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 its empty...
because of you i'm afraid. |
