    Lyrics:
    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 was a ‘daddy’s girl’, growing up in the 60’s-70’s. Everytime my mom and dad had a fight, I saw my dad getting his keys, and my little 6 (to 12) year old self would run outside and climb in the car ahead of my dad. He’d get in, look at me, and say ‘as long as you’re quiet’ and allow me to ride along, where he’d get a coffee and order me a chocolate milk. I saw him simmer down, become calm, and after a bit we’d go home.
    My mom, God Bless her in her pain, would snap at me, saying I was ‘taking sides’.
    I was able to tell her, some years later before she passed (rather suddenly) from pancreatic cancer:
    Mom. I wasn’t taking dad’s side. I just wanted to be with him to make sure HE CAME HOME.
    This song encapsulates so many memories, so much pain…

      I've had many failed friendships growing up. One was rude, badly behaved and got away with anything, one was boring, rude, awkward, difficult, hard to pleased and unsociable, one was weird, strange, boring and had a demented and deranged family and one was spoiled, bratty, disobedient, poorly behaved and loved having everything her way.
      When I was 19, I suffered the biggest and the worst blow of all. This former Secondary schoolmate of mine took the biscuit. We were friends for 6 years, but, he was honestly the worst friend I ever had and the worst friend anyone could have. He was everything I hated-Rude, pampered, spoiled, bratty, pampered, attention-seeking, controlling, greedy, irredeemable, unaccepting of other people, tight, manipulative, arrogant, ignorant, selfish, grouchy, grumpy, impulsive, impatient, unsociable, difficult, awkward, unapproachable, unlikeable, childish, immature, ungrateful, obnoxious, bossy, irresponsible, uncool, lazy, entitled, dishonest, deluded, delusional, unpopular, had no empathy, no understanding towards other people, had no humility towards other people, cocky, sarcastic, conceited, stuck-up, difficult, awkward, I would rather go as far as the edge of the solar system or the end of the world to get away from him or not socialise with him, just horrible and hateful.
      All he ever did was control questions and conversations, try and change me into somebody I'm not, try to have his own way all the time, give up all the time, find the lazy or the easy way out of things, eat like a pig rather than deal with anything, use people, act shy and sensitive to gain attention and sympathy, lie, moan all the time, claim he was so much better than me or infact anyone else, make excuses "I can't do this or that because I'm busy", refuse to be honest, use families to cover up his backside or cover things up for him, refuse to own up when he did something wrong, wouldn't socialise with anyone, read text messages but not reply to them, exclude me from friends day outs, choose somebody else over me, get way with anything, have his own way all the time, kept pulling out of school, refuse to answer any question I asked him, refuse to take part in any conversation, dragged me upstairs in his house and my house to avoid making any effort talking or socialising with anyone, took after his rude, outspoken, opinionated and difficult father and he was ugly both inside and out. We fell out twice. I don't know how or why I forgave him the first time, but, it turned out to be a big mistake and he went back to his bad ways again and again and again. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't be the bloke he wanted me to be. I just didn't have it in me. I hated his father, but, he took the biscuit. He was the biggest mistake I ever made and the most horrible, most babyish and most conniving person I ever had the misfortune to be friends with.
      I wanted to be sociable, outgoing, liked, embraced and more and more and more and more popular, but, he wanted to be in control of everything, control questions and conversations, have everything his way all the time and only please himself, nobody else. His father was just as bad as him, but, I always thought that anyone who liked, defended, accepted or befriended my arch enemy from Secondary School was a poor judge of character and had poor taste in people and friends. I hated, disliked and loathed anyone on his side.
      Long since then, he's remained the biggest outcast from my Secondary School, been ditched and walked out on by my other friends and now only has 3 friends. 3 friends who are uncool, dweeby and have rubbish taste in people and friends.
      Me on the other hand, I have come to my senses and socialised, befriended, mixed and been accepted by far better people-people who were cool, sociable, outgoing, popular, liked me, accepted me and embraced me as one of their own.

    Some day I'll stumble upon this song again, and I won't have this anger anymore. I'd have forgiven, moved on, _be_ happy. This song would be familiar in tune, I might remember the lyrics vaguely and then mumble along, I would know with my mind that it was very painful as I related it, but I won't feel it anymore. Thank you for this song, Kelly Clarkson. To everyone going through similar pains, may we get through this as quickly as possible and come out the other side not too hurt that we've lost ourselves completely. God loves us.

    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 watched you die)
    I heard you cry
    Every night in your sleep
    I was so young (and you're so young)
    You should have known better (I was too young for you)
    Than to lean on me
    You never thought of anyone else
    You just saw your pain (you never saw me)
    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 try 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

    my parents dumped us me and my sister when I was 2 and she was 7... my dad got himself another family and my mom fell for drugs, she passed away in 2014...My dad is still living a normal life with his son and the other woman... My sister got affected the most, she got pregnant at 16 and ended up getting divorced from the dad of his two girls... she abandonned the girls and fell for drugs too. Fortunately my brother-in-law is a great father and he is raising my nieces all by himself.
    We never got a normal family growing up and it hurts me seeing the damage this cycle is causing to my sister and nieces, what it caused to my mom to the point of destructing herself to death... I'm afraid for my future, I want a normal family, I don't want to ruin my children's life.

    To all the parents who suffered from the world , could never stand up to themselves and made their kids their emotional punching bag and taught their child never to trust the world , to never trust anyone , to never feel any emotion . To treat them like theyre weak for having emotional needs. To never even feel human.
    To all the emotionally Stunted children who cant even process basic feelings without fully having a mental and emotional breakdown . Who can never trust anyone ever fully . Who can never maintain relations in their life , without being Paranoid, bitter and ultimately losing it.

    She wrote this when she was 16. Very powerful song to be written at any age, let alone as a teenager. I think sometimes we forget just how good a writer Kelly is. Sometimes her songwriting gets over shadowed by her unbelievably beautiful voice. We all have our own opinions about music, but for me Kelly is the best singer I've ever heard.

    • @frankingenito
      @frankingenito 2 года назад +140

      In response to the comment from Breanna Jones that this song was written by Reba McEntire: The songwriting credits are given to Kelly Clarkson, David Hodges and Ben Moody. Hodges and Moody produced the song. Kelly has said that the song would not have gotten recorded without their help, so she gave them a songwriting credit. But Kelly wrote it at 16. It was about her parents divorce. Reba did record her own version of this with Kelly. Kelly released it on her Breakaway album in 2005. Reba's version came out on her album Duets in 2007.

    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 everyday of my life
    My heart can't possibly break
    When it wasn't even whole to start with
    Because of you

    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 try my hardest just to forget everything
    Because of you

You know . you don't lie inside. it will never exist and happen. is this like an endless word? up for debate. I don't feel like my age is getting old and don't want to keep admitting mistakes. remember the death of the corona virus has been in thousands in each region. even the farthest areas. many people are sad and desperate for those who experience it. money and lives are falling inappropriately. faith began to shake violently. an atsmofer of sadness and despair . which one do you want to follow?

God forbid it? and can't even eat it? talk about cause and effect? does God allow all these problems? with this belief? if we look at this world and its interests. anyone studying the true path and religion? why be so far away from the goal? when there is an incident or crime, it is natural and must???? ....? should I be that person? we must be vigilant? do we learn the truth? not as perpetrators of crime and making crime look positive and must be done. crime is crime. there is nothing good in it. even harm others and destroy your career. If you want money? not wrong? remember but the way? Stay with God? but we have to have a job, from what? that can make money right and not breaking. let alone insist on being right. clearly in God is the opposite? so use life and what we have wisely and well. before we know it. sorry for always coming late. try and think for real. not always use analogies to change paradigms and perspectives. keep fighting reality and repeating the same mistakes. become a science that contradicts the basic foundations of cause and effect and real logical thinking. what is real and reality. before we realize and it's too late. fill this day with kindness and enthusiasm. Don't forget to take good care of this corona virus. because the future of vaccines and the amount and level of economic income of a country are determined. only true vaccines. which can treat body cells that are attacked. heart and brain cells are cells that can only grow after decades. even have to be willing to spend energy that should not be wasted from this body on purpose.

And I have a lot of family problems. It’s not better, but the past few days have been good so I guess that’s good.

      Peggy Schuyler I disagree with the "or divorce" part heavily. My parents are divorced, but were mature about. I never heard them argue to my memory, I never saw violence, even to this day they can hold civilized conversation when discussing something about me as far as I'm aware, and I see both almost equally. There is no reason for two people to be in a toxic or miserable relationship for the child's sake, and that is what leads to the violence and cheating that will likely give the child trust issues and anxiety.

    When this song first came out, my mom was driving me to school and this was on the radio. She was going through a messy divorce with my dad and yadayada, it was a rough time. She told me she feels like this is my song for her, this song still makes me tear up because of that.

    To everyone who has been through childhood trauma,
    You are amazing. You're so strong and I'm so proud of you for managing everything so well. I know you feel confused and helpless but please never give up on yourself. It wasn't your fault,you were just a child trying to discover the world...
    God has a gift for everyone who has been so strong to deal with a traumatic childhood,he has for you too and that's why he has given you so much strength. I believe in your power and I know you'll be able to get through this difficult journey and come out stronger with every moment passing by. Just because,nobody knows about your pain doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Your trauma is real and matters.
    Stay strong.

    What's really terrible is that this song was aimed more towards her mother. If you listen closely you can hear throughout the whole song that she is ashamed her mother put up with her father for that long and was so vulnerable to him. In the bridge of the song ("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") she's telling you that her mother lost her way and never took the others into consideration. Now Kelly is afraid that she'll make her mother's mistakes by being with the wrong man and letting her family get to the point of where her family was when she was younger. It's truly sad.

      oversleep hero, take advantage?
      Dawn of Fire Attack? Unexpected?
      green trees, cool weather, watery?
      How did it happen?!
      drought, deciduous leaves, excessive heat, wind, direction, dry areas, forests and plantations,
      see extraordinary scale?
      wind and fire speed reaches 146kph?
      smoke height.
      in one day thousands of hectares burned?
      keep in mind the fire burns with spread and the direction of the wind and that can be burned quickly.
      leaves. branch. chemicals such as paint, plastic and others?
      the scale of large complex homes accelerates the spread of fire.
      do you need to know which trees or plants are green and fresh or are they raining?
      with the current weather after earlier ...
      then ....... the day after because of the hot weather ... right now?
      then you will be surprised? if you understand?! trees or plants?! will it look very very dry ?! like never been showered with water?
      one you can imagine?
      can this happen in any region or country?
      if you live? wherever you are?
      especially hot and tropical climates?
      alert?
      don't anyone take ......?!
      I'm so sad ?!
      the fire spreads in the direction of the wind?
      and distribution of fire?
      with a scale of miles ..... then the heat of smoke is the same as being called?
      half enough to one hour
      will the tree dry?
      extraordinary impact?
      200km / hour spread radius ........
      1hour .......... but if it spreads circular ........ what ...... wind ...
      fire like this can be able to cross the area without being crossed by fire ... ..... up to 1km.
      warm area. hot. become a grill like a stone road. sand. smoke. If this is only exposed to smoke within hundreds of meters, it will melt. dry and burn by itself?
      prepare yourself? from the worst possible? prepare everything good. calm down asked the clerk?
      Tell your friends and family?
      commemorate? especially when sleeping?
      this is not a toy and in a few hours or tomorrow? can't ... it can happen even though it's far away?
      the worst possibility happened .....

("I watched you die, I heard you cry every night in your sleep, I was so young, you should've known better than to lean on me, you never thought of anyone else you just saw your pain") Her dad left in the video, and didn't care he was leaving, and the mom shut her out of her life, so they both did the same thing, I think it's aimed at both of them.

    This song resonates with everyone who went through rough childhood experience which maybe just little less intense to say traumatic because there are people who have been through worse, but doesn’t mean it affects you less. Some traumatic childhood experiences are hard to explain because you had food on your plate and a roof over your head. Your parents worked hard for you, and didn’t abandon you but emotionally they were not there, and you never received that emotional security to grow into a full happy adult. All those arguments, bitterness, chaos and fear left a huge hole inside your heart, who would you hold accountable for? My heart breaks every time I come to this song because I see myself in that little girl
    Coming back to this comment after a year and a half as so many great souls are telling me how it resonates with them. I was so wrong about comparing trauma in terms of some people having it worse. I didn’t know at that time. Emotional neglect and abandonment in your childhood IS A TRAUMA…period!
    I know it now because finally after being emotionally broken for so many years, I am able to recognise how it has shaped me and my relationship with people around me.
    The silver lining is I am learning that the trauma can be healed and I am finally beginning to work on it with my therapist and also with self education and researching. Dr. Gabor Mate is the specialist in childhood trauma and is very helpful, anyone with childhood trauma should listen to him. You are all loved ❤

      I hope, your able to come it and live the life your meant too live.... From personal experience, I realized it ok to grow up without father.... Was it painful yes, but in the end it wasn't him I was searching for.... I don't know your circumstances, but i know what you needed is already inside you.... I praying you realize this before it too late....
