If I was in love with you, I would tell you how you've never left my mind since the day we last talked.

If I was in love with you, I would tell you that I can't remember the last time I had the courage to look you in the eye.

If I was in love with you, I would tell you that I laugh at myself every day for being in this much pain when I was the one who caused it.

If I was in love with you, I would tell you that I'm frustrated with myself because of the fact that I hurt you.

If I was in love with you, I would distract myself with anything to stop you from invading my thoughts.

If I was in love with you, you could tell by my expression that I wear a plastic face to cover up my exposed skeleton.

If I was in love with you, you would have known from the start that I've been in misery watching you try for me.

If I was in love with you, I would try to convince myself that the world's view on young lovers is the right one.

If I was in love with you, why would I hurt you like I did?

So I can't be in love with you, because how could anyone like you love me?
