I will not make the same mistakes that you did
B            F#
I will not let myself
G#m                      F#
Cause my heart so much misery
B          F#        G#m
I will not break the way you did,
          E
You fell so hard
B                      F#
I've learned the hard way
        E            F#
To never let it get that far

       B
Because of you
           G#m                F#
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
                  B
Because of you
                       G#m                        F#

I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me

Because of you

I am afraid

B       F#
I lose my way
            G#m                F#       B
And it's not too long before you point it out
              F#
I cannot cry
G#m                  F#                        B
Because you know that's weakness in your eyes
             F#
I'm forced to fake
    G#m                  F#                  B
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
                       F#
My heart can't possibly break
              E            F#
When it wasn't even whole to start with

     B
Because of you
           G#m          F#
I never stray too far from the sidewalk

             F#                 C#
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
              B
I was so young
                     G#m       C#
You should have known better than to lean on me
                B     F#
You never thought of anyone else
             C#
You just saw your pain
           B          E
And now I cry in the middle of the night

For the same damn thing
