Because Of You (cover) Lyrics - Amanda Mena

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 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 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 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 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 it's empty 

Because of you 

I am afraid 

Because of you 

Because of you
