Because Of You (Live) by Kelly Clarkson

I will not make the (1)________ mistakes that you did
I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery
I (2)________ not (3)__________ the way you did
You (4)________ so hard
I've (5)______________ the hard way
To never let it get (6)________ far
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the (7)________ 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 was so young
You should have know (8)____________ 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
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 (9)________ to trust, not only me
But everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid
