歌曲简介：
歌曲表现的是一个女孩儿幼年时，父母感情不和，常常争吵打闹，母亲绝望的泪水和父亲愤怒的离去在她幼小的心灵里刻下了不可磨灭的痕迹。这些伤痛伴随着她长大成人，结婚生子，现在她的姻也出现了和父母一样的问题，她和丈夫争吵打闹，她绝望地哭泣，过去的一幕幕又在她的脑海中闪现...于是有了这首歌，歌中的“你”指的就是她的父亲或者母亲，她在控诉他们对她造成的伤害，让她现在无法拥有正常的感情和爱，她的生活陷入了恐惧和绝望之中，她感到迷惘，她为自己感到羞愧，这些都是因为父母没有给过她一个完整的充满了爱的家，以及没有教会她怎样去爱一个人，去维护一个。好在最终，当她的丈夫要摔毁一张全家人的合影之时，她看见了女儿那受伤的眼睛，仿若自己年幼时一样惊恐不安，她猛然觉悟，跑过去拥抱住了丈夫。这个拥抱最终换回了丈夫的宽容和谅解,以及家庭的美满幸福。
歌词：
I will not make the same mistakes that you did 我不会重复你犯过的错误
I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery 我不会让自己的心承受如此痛苦
I will not break the way you did 我不会破坏你选择的方式
You fell so hard 你吃尽苦头
I learned the hard way, to never let it get that far
我也已经知道痛苦的滋味 所以不会一错再错
Because of you 因为你
I never stray too far from the sidewalk 我从来都不会偏离常轨
Because of you 因为你
I learned to play on the safe side 我学会站在安全的一方
So I don't get hurt 以免自己受到伤害
Because of you 因为你
I find it hard to trust 我发现很难去相信
Not only me, but everyone around me 自己以及我身边的每一个人
Because of you 因为你
I am afraid 我害怕
I lose my way 在你指出道路的不久前
And it's not too long before you point it out 我迷失了方向
I cannot cry 我不能哭
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes 因为我知道这在你眼里是软弱的表现
I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh 在生活中的每一天
Every day of my life 我被迫强颜欢笑
My heart can't possibly break 我的心可能早已破碎
When it wasn't even whole to start with 甚至在最初之时就不再完整
Because of you 因为你
I never stray too far from the sidewalk 我从来都不会偏离常轨
Because of you 因为你
I learned to play on the safe side 我学会站在安全的一方
So I don't get hurt 以免自己受到伤害
Because of you 因为你
I find it hard to trust 我发现很难去相信
Not only me, but everyone around me 自己以及身边的每一个人
Because of you 因为你
I am afraid 我害怕
I watched you die 我看到你日渐憔悴
I heard you cry 每晚，我都听见
Every night in your sleep 你在睡梦中哭泣
I was so young 我当时太小
You should have known better than to lean on me 你早该知道而不是还依赖于我
You never thought of anyone else 你从来不考虑别人的感受
You just saw your pain 你只在乎自己的痛苦
And now I cry 如今我亦因为
In the middle of the night 同样的事情
Over the same damn thing 在深夜里哭泣
Because of you 因为你
I never stray too far from the sidewalk 我从来都不会偏离常轨
Because of you 因为你
I learned to play on the safe side 我学会站在安全的一方
So I don't get hurt 以免自己受到伤害
Because of you 因为你
I tried my hardest just to forget everything 我尽最大的努力 只想忘记这一切
Because of you 因为你
I don't know how to let anyone else in 我不知道如何去接纳别人
Because of you 因为你
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty 我为那一颗荒芜的心感到愧疚
Because of you 因为你
I am afraid 我害怕
Because of you 是因为你
