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 learnd 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 you 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 possible break
When it wasn't even whole to start with
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you

Hello friend,
I don't know exactly what you were attempting to do with this but just think it would make a great poem. It seem to make a lot of sense but it just need to have a little bit more continuity. I am a writer of poems myself and I like this a lot. It just seems to be missing out on a little bit of flow. I do hope that you will try to work on it a little more then perhaps think about getting it copywrited and published. So this way no-one can try to claim it at their own. Good luck and keep up the great work.

This is a wonderful song! I actually performed it during my senoir year at Highschool. I think what I like most about it is how she overcomes everything and didn't allow herself to become a victim like her father was. I think it is just so inspirational! Thank you for sharing this :)
