Because of you


People always tell me, there's plenty of fish in the sea.
But you just didn't get, that you were the only fish for me.
All I ever did was love you...and I just wanted to let you know.
That no matter how much pressure you put on me, I'll never let you go.

All my friends say you were foolish. They knew you'd break my heart.
I was too blind to listen, so maybe I was blinded from the start.
From all the points of laughter, to all the points I cried.
You were always there for me. But now that's all a lie.

Because of you, I can't see the light anymore.
I don't even know where I'm supposed to go.
Because of you, I've become directionless...
And now there's no place to call home.

Because of you, I found all my weaknesses.
I wish I were more tough.
Now that you left me alone...
I think I've had enough.

Maybe one day, I'll find someone else.
Maybe one day, that person will not leave.
Maybe one day, you'll find someone for you.
And maybe one day, perhaps you will believe.
