Because of You - Kelly Clarkson

[00:15.390]I will not make the same mistakes that you did
[00:21.679]I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery
[00:28.799]I will not break the way you did
[00:32.669]You fell so hard
[00:34.989]I learned the hard way, to never let it get that far
[00:41.859]Because of you
[00:44.300]I never stray too far from the sidewalk
[00:49.819]Because of you
[00:51.429]I learned to play on the safe side
[00:54.019]So I don't get hurt
[00:57.390]Because of you
[00:58.899]I find it hard to trust
[01:00.189]Not only me, but everyone around me
[01:03.849]Because of you
[01:06.709]I am afraid
[01:13.090]I lose my way
[01:15.290]And it's not too long before you point it out
[01:19.479]I cannot cry
[01:21.819]Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
[01:26.419]I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh
[01:30.729]Every day of my life
[01:33.219]My heart can't possibly break
[01:35.739]When it wasn't even whole to start with
[01:39.899]Because of you
[01:41.219]I never stray too far from the sidewalk
[01:47.499]Because of you
[01:48.509]I learned to play on the safe side
[01:52.190]So I don't get hurt
[01:54.459]Because of you
[01:56.109]I find it hard to trust
[01:57.739]Not only me, but everyone around me
[02:02.199]Because of you
[02:04.799]I am afraid
[02:08.419]I watched you die
[02:09.899]I heard you cry
[02:11.599]Every night in your sleep
[02:15.079]I was so young
[02:16.669]You should have known better than to lean on me
[02:22.290]You never thought of anyone else
[02:25.369]You just saw your pain
[02:29.699]And now I cry
[02:30.009]In the middle of the night
[02:33.199]Over the same damn thing
[02:39.659]Because of you
[02:41.899]I never stray too far from the sidewalk
[02:46.629]Because of you
[02:48.249]I learned to play on the safe side
[02:50.639]So I don't get hurt
[02:53.490]Because of you
[02:55.889]I tried my hardest just to forget everything
[03:00.829]Because of you
[03:02.969]I don't know how to let anyone else in
[03:07.599]Because of you
[03:09.409]I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
[03:14.499]Because of you
[03:16.889]I am afraid
[03:22.599]Because of you
