What does kelly clarkson's because of you video mean?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

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)

Answer 3

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.
