Because Of You I Find It Hard To Trust Not Only Me, But Everyone Around Me...

"Because Of You" By Kelly Clarkson

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
Every day 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 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

Because of you
Because of you

I don't really have time to say all that I need to say. This weekend was really cool, but has left me with a few questions about the people that surround me. Friday night was the Kelly Clarkson concert, which was amazing, then the Harry Potter BS thing at Borders, which was also pretty fun, mainly cos' we snuck in some alcohol. Saturday night was my birthday party, which was fun, too. Again, I don't really have the time to write about it now, but I will prolly tonight or tomorrow after work. I will elaborate on all of this later, but right now I just wanted to post these lyrics, because they are everything that has been running through my head lately, all wrapped up in one song.
