if?

If I was tired should I sleep?
If I was hurt should I weep?
If I was happy should I smile?
If I belonged should I stay for a while?
If I was made-up should I go?
If I was cool should I blow?
If I was angry should I attack?
If I was mistaken should I go back?
If I was numb should I come?
If I was sad should I make myself numb?
If I was me would you walk away?
If I was confident would you do this every day?
If I was dead would you miss my so rarely looked at spot?
If I was gone would you lie about caring a lot?
