My Story…

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’ve 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 learned 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 it 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 possibly break
When it wasn’t even whole to start with

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned 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 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 damn 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 don’t get hurt
Because of you
I tried my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don’t know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I’m ashamed of my life because it’s empty
Because of you
I am afraid

Because of you
Because of you

Tuliskan kesedihan,
Semua tak bisa kau ungkapkan
Dan kita ‘kan bicara,
Dengar hatiku

Buang semua puisi,
Antara kita berdua
Kau bunuh dia sesuatu
Yang kusebut cinta

Yakinkan aku Tuhan
Dia bukan milikku,
Biarkan waktu,
Waktu hapus aku

Sadarkan aku Tuhan
Dia bukan milikku,
Biarkan waktu,
Waktu hapus aku

Tuliskan kesedihan,
Semua tak bisa kau hentikan
Dan kita ‘kan bicara,
Dengar jiwaku

Buang semua puisi,
Antara kita berdua
Kau bunuh dia sesuatu
Yang kusebut cinta

Yakinkan aku Tuhan
Dia bukan milikku,
Biarkan waktu,
Waktu hapus aku

Sadarkan aku Tuhan
Dia bukan milikku,
Biarkan waktu,
Waktu hapus aku

Di daun yang ikut
Mengalir lembut
Terbawa sungai ke ujung mata
Dan aku mulai takut
Terbawa cinta
Menghirup rindu yang sesakkan dada

Jalanku hampa
Dan ku sentuh dia,
Terasa hangat di dalam hati
Kupegang erat dan kuhalangi waktu,
Tak urung jua ku lihatnya pergi

Tak pernah kuragu
Dan selalu kuingat
Kerlingan matamu
Dan sentuhan hangat

Ku saat itu takut
Mencari makna,
Tumbuhkan rasa yang
Sesakkan dada

Kau datang dan pergi
Begitu saja,
Semua ku terima apa adanya
Mata terpejam
Dan hati menggumam,
Di ruang rindu kita bertemu

Kau datang dan pergi
Begitu saja,
Semua ku terima apa adanya
Mata terpejam
Dan hati menggumam,
Di ruang rindu kita bertemu
