Because of You


Because of you I hate myself When I was young, it was just us two And we would actually fall asleep laughing But now, all because of you I fall asleep crying I feel worth less than a penny So because of you Nights I cry? Oh, these are many So now when I want to die The only thing keeping me alive Is saying that because of you I am stronger and will not Show your weakness… Because of you I will win- At least I will try My best.
