Because Of You

Have you ever stopped
And wondered......
Wondered Why?
Why i act the way i do?

Could the answer be....
Because of you.
Stuck waiting for our love
To ever be as true as it used to.

What i thought
And what you thought.
Just equals two pieces,
two pieces of my heart.

Now i realize,
How much i sacrificed.
And how many tears
I wasted on lies.

But did you ever stop,
And wonder.....
Wonder why?
Why i am who i am?

The answers still the same.
Because of you....
Because of you i am
The jealous chick.

The jealous girl,
That no one understands.
Because of you
I am no longer sure.

I found myself
And lost myself.
Why?
Because i played with the cards you dealt me.

Every time i look in another guys eyes,
I see an ocean full of lies.
No longer the beautiful sea
I chose to sail across.

Sheltered and hurt
Is what my heart is.
Unable to love the way i used to,
Because of you.....

I cry at night,
Not because i lost you,
But because i let my guard down.
And you didn't protect me....

You always swore to be
My knight in shining armor.
You just transformed into the handle of my knife.

Cutting myself,
HA HA **Not** thats a stupid thing you do.
But staying true to myself,
Is one good thing that happened,

Because of you.............
