Saying "No"

[Verse 1] Didn't think I was a people pleaser 'Til I lost myself pleasing you But I'm looking back on my childhood And this pattern, it isn't new Didn't think I was a pushover 'Til you made my bound'ries soft Didn't wanna fight, didn't wanna argue all night It was easier to just get you off [Pre-Chorus] New sheets, new me Takin' up the space I need [Chorus] You took my body, but I'm gettin' it back You wrecked my trust, but my hope is intact I'm gonna find someone who's gentle and slow Who loves my yes as much as my no I'm movin' slowly, I'm takin' my time If I say yes, I can change my mind I won't say sorry to soften the blow I'm gettin' good at sayin' no [Post-Chorus] I-I-I-I'm sayin' no I-I-I-I'm sayin' no I-I-I-I'm sayin' no [Verse 2] I'm pourin' out from an empty cup And you're suckin' out every last drop No time to care, no time to wash my hair I'm ignorin' when my body says stop But I wanna be a better friend to me I wanna light a candle and fill my journal up I want what I say to mean something My final answer should be enough [Pre-Chorus] Anyone worth anything Will give me all the space I need [Chorus] You took my body, but I'm gettin' it back You wrecked my trust, but my hope is intact I'm gonna find someone who's gentle and slow Who loves my yes as much as my no I'm movin' slowly, I'm takin' my time If I say yes, I can change my mind I won't say sorry to soften the blow I'm gettin' good at sayin' no [Post-Chorus] I-I-I-I'm sayin' no I-I-I-I'm sayin' no I-I-I-I'm sayin' no [Outro] I can stay out late, I can just go home (I'm sayin' no) I can leave mid-date, I can be alone (I'm sayin' no) I'm a waterfall, my cup overflows (I'm sayin' no) I'm gettin' better, better at sayin' no
