title : because of you
because I was so into you
I thought you were everything and more
because we were perfect
I thought we could last through whatever
because you promised me forever
I thought you could keep your word
because you said we could make it through everything
I thought I couldn't be without you
because I was supid & fell for it all
I let my emotions get in the way
because I listened to you
I thought I could put my trust you
because you convinced me
I believed you were the best for me
because you said you were different
I thought you were true
because I'm afraid to know what I'd be without you
I can't picture my life with you not in it
because all you did was lie
I thought I was worth the truth to you
because that's how you are
I thought I knew you
because I'm done getting hurt
I never thought you could hurt me
..and now I'm gone; baby, I'm not coming back
I never thought I'd be saying it
happy birthday...
