She actually wrote the song Because of You when she was just 16. The song is about realizing the patters in your family and changing it so your children don't have to suffer hence-- "I will not make, the same mistakes that you did..." So the song, and if you watch the music video, is just about family and those kinds of things. But Because of you is actually a pretty versatile song and could also represent a failed relationship or something of that variety.
Ooh, ooh
Ooooohhh
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
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 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 only 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 to 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 its empty
Because of you
I am afraid
Because of you
(ooh ooh)
Because of you
(ooh ooh)
Kelly Clarkson's hit single "Because of You," from her 2004 album Breakaway, was derived from words and a tune that were originally written by Clarkson when she was just 16 years old; later collaboration with David Hodges and Ben Moody helped transform Clarkson's original song into the version recorded on her album.
The words of the song have reference to Clarkson's own upbringing in Texas, in what she called a "broken home," since her mother and father divorced when Clarkson was very young. Clarkson has stated that she originally wrote the song as a way of coping with the effects of parental confrontation, emotional abuse, and divorce that were present in her own life during those early years.
In Kelly Clarkson's Because of You video means she was the little kid hugging her teddy and her mum and dad were fighting. Then she saw her dad get a photo frame and hit her mum in her childhood time. Like, the lyrics "because of you I never stay too far from the side walk meaning her dad telling her that be careful. When she grew up she looked exactly like her mother. She was Kelly Clarkson.
