实际上这是一首唱给父母听的歌。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…… I will not make the same mistakes that you did 我不容许自己重蹈覆辙，犯和你同样的错 i will not let myself cause my heart so much misery 我不想让自己那么绝望，那么痛苦不堪 i will not break the way you did you fell so hard 我克制着自己不要像你那样离开，那时你是如此地失落 i learned the hard way, to never let it get that far 我已经历过那样的痛苦，不想再受伤害 because of you ,i never stray too far from the sidewalk 因为你，我总是小心翼翼，绝不让自己迷失在这混乱的世界之中 because of you ,i learned to play on the safe side so i don't get hurt 你让我懂得要停留在安全正确的地方 得过且过才不会受伤 because of you ,i find it hard to trust not only me , but everyone around me 你让我很难再去相信自己或是围绕着我的人们 because of you i am afraid 你让我陷入了无尽的恐惧之中 i lose my way and it's not too long before you point it out 在你察觉之前，我早已迷失了自我 i cannot cry 我不哭 because i know that's weakness in your eyes 因为我知道在你眼里那代表着软弱 i'm forced to fake a smile ,a laugh everday of my life 我假装微笑着去过每一天 my heart can't possibly break 我的心已不能再破碎了 when it wasn't even whole to start with 因为从一开始它本就是不完整的 because of you ,i never stray too far from the sidewalk 因为你，我总是小心翼翼，不让自己迷失在这混乱的世界之中 because of you ,i learned to play on the safe side so i don't get hurt 是你让我懂得要停留在安全正确的地方，得过且过才不会受伤害 because of you ,i find it hard to trust not only me , but everyone around me 你让我不再相信自己或围绕着我的人们 because of you i am afraid 你让我陷入了无尽的恐惧之中 i watched you die i heard you cry everynight in your sleep 过去的每个夜里，当你熟睡之时，我静看着你的青春流逝，我听见你在哭泣 i was so young 我是如此地少不更事 you should have know better than to lean on me 你应该教给我更多，而不是依赖着我 you never thought of anyone else you just saw your pain 你的眼中只能看见自己的伤痛，却从不考虑我的感受 and now i cry in the middle of the night over the same damn thing 而如今，同样的痛苦让我在每个午夜暗自哭泣 because of you ,i never stray too far from the sidewalk 因为你，我总是小心翼翼，绝不让自己迷失在这混乱的世界之中 because of you ,i learned to play on the safe side so i don't get hurt 是你让我懂得要待在安全正确的地方，得过且过才不会受伤害 because of you ,i tried my hardest just to forget everything 因为你，我试着用尽全力去忘记所有的伤痛 because of you .i don't know how to let anyone else in 你让我不知道怎样去爱一个人 because of you ,i'm ashamed of my life because it's empty 因为你，我无脸面对自己这虚度的人生 because of you i am afraid 你让我陷入了无尽的恐惧之中 because of you 一切都因为你 because of you 一切都因为你。。。
