I love you with all my heart,
And you may think that's an exaggeration.
Most people do, after all.
It's just basic flattery, isn't it.
But it isn't.
I love you because you're my favorite person.
The way you talk,
The way you speak,
The way you think, act, behave, love.
But it hurts at the same time.
I hate you.
I love you.
I hate you.
I love you.
To me, it's all the same.
After all,
I rely on you.
That is also not an exaggeration.
You unconsciously manipulate my heart with your emotions,
No matter how small your change in behavior might be,
I'll notice it,
And I'll create a whole different fantasy about your emotion.
I'll emphasize it to the point of obsession.
Does she hate me?
She does, doesn't she.
That's why I'm afraid.
I'm afraid because I love you.
