BECAUSE OF YOU (LYRICS) Hands on the mirror
Can't get much clearer
Can't make this all go away
Now that you're bleeding
You stare at the ceiling
And watch as it all fades away
From what you do...
Closer to you?
You know I can't be there, each time that you call
I swore not to come, but I'm here after all
I know by the look that I see in your eye
I won't stand around and I won't watch you die
From what you do...
What you do...What you do...What because of you?
What you do...What you do...What because of...
Now that you did this, you ask for forgiveness
Doctor, could you be my priest?
You say your mistaken, but look what she'd taken
You laugh as you lie through your teeth
From what you do...
Closer to you?
You know I can't be there, each time that you call
I swore not to come but I'm here after all
I know by the look that I see in your eye
I won't stand around and I won't watch you die
From what you do...
What you do, what you do, what because of you?
What you do, what you do, what because of...
From what you do...
Hands on the mirror
Can't get much clearer
Can't make this all go away
Now that you're bleeding
You stare at the ceiling
And watch as it all fades away
From what you do...
Closer to you?
You know I can't be there, each time that you call
I swore not to come but I'm here after all
I know by the look that I see in your eye
I won't stand around and I won't watch you die
From what you do...
What you do...What you do...What because of you?
What you do...What you do...What because of...
Closer to you?
What because of... BECAUSE OF YOU (SONG MEANING) It kind of sounds like he, or someone else ditched a girl or a friend, because they had some kind of a drug addiction "Now that you're bleeding/You stare at the ceiling/And watch as it all fades away." When that person goes over the line she, or he calls Chad or whoever up and asks him to come out, he doesn't want to "You know I can't be there, each time that you call." This is because he doesn't want to watch that person slowly fade away to nothing "I won't stand around and I won't watch you die/From what you do." He sings "Now that you did this you ask for forgiveness, doctor could you be my priest?/You say you're mistaken but look what you're taking/You laugh as you lie through your teeth." Chad means now that you see I'm gone you want me to forgive you and take you back. You promise you won't do it again but you do and I know you will continue to.
