Song Lyrics

Ok so you all know the song by Kelly Clarkson "Because of you"...well thats one of my fav songs right now. Its so fiting for my life and some of you may know why. I posted the lyrics at the end here so you can all read them. I am not gonna explain much right now but here they are:

Because Of YouI 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 Ive learned the hard way to never let it get that far (chorus) Because of you I never strayed to far from the sidewalk Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I dont get hurt Because of you I find it hard to find it hard to trust, not only me,but everyone around me, Because of you, I am afraid I lose my way, and its not too long before you point it out I cannot cry, because I know thats weakness in your eyes Im forced to fake a smile, a laugh, every day of my life My heart cant possibly break, when it wasnt even whole to start with (chorus) I watched you die, I heard you cry, every night in your sleep. I was so young, you should have known better 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, doin the same damn thing (chorus, but slightly different) Because of you I never strayed to far from the sidewalk Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I dont get hurt Because of you I try my hardest just to forget everything Because of you I dont know how to let anyone else in Because of you Im ashamed of my life, because its empty Because of you, I am afraid Because of you Because of you

hmmm...because of you i learned to play on the safe side so i don't get hurt...i love this song too, and this line really sticks out every time I hear it...

I don't know why - but that really sucks. I hope you're doing okay Nikki...

i COMPLETELY agree with Jelea! That one line stands out like a sore thumb to me too.... perhaps in some aspects it rings too true for my liking, or perhaps its just a really good song.... either way.... *hands nikki a pacadge*... here is something for you... its my love, my friendship and my forgiveness.... go read the letter and the card from the rehab center.... we love you! Be blessed!

I just read that again - it's.... imprisoning... Nikki you still know you've got the support of your friends for any situation you go through - so whatever that looks like to you, please don't just say, 'I know, I know' and in the back of your mind, overlook us. You'll break through - because you're bigger than your circumstance.

It's a unbeleiveably catchy tune, but I kinda agree with Josh on this one. If there's something going on, just remember that you've got friends to help you through it, and most importantly, you've got a Lord to overcome it. And thats' a million times better than winning American Idol. ;)
