no

there was a time when you made me cry

when you did things to me

that made me want to die

you made me feel worthless

shattered and bruised

but then when i cried

you held me close

and forget i'd been used

 

i know i said "no"

but i don't think you heard it

you made it into my fault

you gave me that burden

 

but even now when i should push you away

you talk to me sweet

you know what to say

so that even when i don't want you

which is every day

my mouth can't form "no"

you already took that away
