You said that you loved me
But I didn't say it back.
It felt like an attack.
I was scared
My heart was impaired.
You reminded me of that man
And what he did when I ran.
But you didn't act like him
You didn't abuse me on a whim

You said I love you
But I didn't say it back
I didn't know how to react.
You reminded me of that boy
And how he treated me like a toy
That he could say anything to
But he's not you

You said you loved me
But I didn't say it back
I just ran into the black
Leaving you there
With a prayer
That I would return
And from that we would learn
But I didn't
To you I was curt
Because I didn't want to be hurt.

But you're not him
Your, you
Now I must say...
That, I'm sorry
I'm this way.
