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 

I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I can not 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 

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 !


I'll 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
