Because of You

Every time I want to cry
Because I hate myself no matter how hard I try
I remember how you said I have beautiful eyes
So I hold back my tears for another time
And Why?
Because Of You
Every time I want to scream
Because no matter what, the world's so mean
I remember how you said that my voice is something from your dream
So I swallow my rage and try not to get too extreme
And Why?
Because Of You
Every time I want to cut
Because being in that house makes me feel like a nut
I remember how you said that you'd love me no matter what
So I put away the knife and try and settle the sick feeling in my gut
And Why?
Because Of You
