Don'T Love Me

I don't know if I told you this already, 
But it is a mistake to love me. 
My parents did. They now regret it. 
My Grandma did. Now she's in pain. 
My family loved me, now they reject me. 
It is a mistake to love me. 
The thing is I don't love back. 
I do know that. 
I don't really know how to love another. 
I'm not human, I just look like one. 
If you love me, 
Don't be expecting me to love you back, 
I won't even fake it.

I'm selfish. I'm evil. 
Cuz I know all that but I won't change a little. 
Sometimes I want. I even try. 
But my heart seems so frozen and hard,  
I don't even imagine putting a crack 
Breaking it down, and letting someone inside 
I don't love. I can't love. And I'm not sure I want to. 

Don't love me. No. Don't ever love me. 
It will hurt me to see you try. 
See you expect something out of my heart 
Only to get mist and a heart colder than ice.

Am I wicked? No, I'm not.  
Its not intentional, it's not aforethought
But no matter how much you try
You won't break the ice over my heart.
Maybe I was born so. Maybe nature made me cold.
Maybe I might care about you a little bit.
Yes, a little bit, 
Like a prized possession.
