Not a love story
When did the Because I love you’s turn to something that made me flinch?
At first it was because I love you I’ll lay here with you until you fall asleep
It was because I love you please let me know you got home safely
Because I love you I'll dry your tears
Because I love you I’ll make sure you know you can trust me
Because I love you I'll give you your space
Now it’s because I love you you need to text back faster
It’s because I love you you'll lay here beneath me
Because I love you you'll listen to the rules
Because I love you you'll stay still
Because I love you’ll let me see your phone
Because I love you I'll hurt you
Because I love you its ok
Because I love you you can't leave me
Because I love you I'll kill myself
Because I love you I'll kill you
and I always respond because I love you I'm still here
