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 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 trus
