==Lyrics==
Ooh-ooh, ooh 
Ooh 

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 watched you die, in your sleep'') 
I was so young, you should have known better than to lean on me 
(''I was too young for you to lean on me'') 
You never thought of anyone else, you just saw your pain 
(''You never saw me, yeah, yeah'') 
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 (Ah-ah, ah, ah) 
Because of you, mmh, ooh
