Because of You - Kelly Clarkson

[eunice]

did u guys listen to kelly clarskon's because of you???
i just love the song..hehe

here is the lyrics:

i will not make the same mistakes that u did ,
i will not let myself ,
cause my heart so much misery
i will not break the way u did ,
you fell so hard
i learned the hard way
to never let it get that far

* chorus
[glow=red,2,300]because of you
i never stray too 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 not to trust only me, but everyone around me
because of you
i am afraid [/glow]

i lose my way ,
and its 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 everyday of my life
my heart cant possibly break
when it wasn't whole to start with

*

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
for the same d**n 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 dont get hurt,
because of you
i try my hardest just to forget everything,
because of you,
i dunno how to let anyone else in,
because of you,
i am ashamed of my life because its empty,
because of you,
i'm afraid..
BECAUSE OF YOU!!

I love this song!
Yeah, this is on Breakaway album, but it is seldom played.
It's one of my favorite tracks in the album.
My another favorite is "Addicted".

[~Jessy~]

Let me post the lyrics of Addicted.
I don't think this has been played on radio before but it's an amazing song.
Love the lyrics and the way Kelly sings it, especially the last line.


Kelly Clarkson - Addicted

It's like you're a drug
It's like you're a demon I can't face down
It's like I'm stuck
It's like I'm running from you all the time
And I know I let you have all the power
It's like the only company I seek is misery all around
It's like you're a leech
Sucking the life from me
It's like I can't breathe
Without you inside of me
And I know I let you have all the power
And I realize I'm never gonna quit you over time

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interrupting me
In my thoughts
In my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me

It's like I'm lost
It's like I'm giving up slowly
It's like you're a ghost that's haunting me
Leave me alone
And I know these voices in my head
Are mine alone
And I know I'll never change my ways
If I don't give you up now

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interrupting me
In my thoughts
In my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me

I'm hooked on you I need a fix I can't take it
Just one more hit I promise I can deal with it
I'll handle it, quit it Just one more time Then that's it
Just a little bit more to get me through this
I'm hooked on you I need a fix I can't take it
Just one more hit I promise I can deal with it
I'll handle it, quit it Just one more time
Then that's it Just a little bit more to get me through this

It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you interrupting me
In my thoughts
In my dreams
You've taken over me
It's like I'm not me
It's like I'm not me

hehe..i reli love dat song 2...it's one of my favourite...I'm her fan 2 but i admire her songs oni la...and d lyrics r reli touching...hehe...dis's another song i like..'Behind These Hazel Eyes'

Seems like just yesterday
You were a part of me
I used to stand so tall
I used to be so strong
Your arms around me tight
Everything, it felt so right
Unbreakable, like nothin' could go wrong
Now I can't breathe
No, I can't sleep
I'm barely hanging on

Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes

I told you everything
Opened up and let you in
You made me feel alright
For once in my life
Now all that's left of me
Is what I pretend to be
So together, but so broken up inside
'Cause I can't breathe
No, I can't sleep
I'm barely hangin' on

Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes

Swallow me then spit me out
For hating you, I blame myself
Seeing you it kills me now
No, I don't cry on the outside
Anymore...

Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes

Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes
