Can't Say No (lyrics)A Poem by AlaskaLyrics for the acoustic/indie band I'm working on, She Hates The Bird.
Let’s just keep pointing out each others mistakes;
we’re only human, anyways. Words wound like bullets that new scars will replace. Your careless words, they hit, they hit me at the core. I just can’t stand the sound of your f*****g voice anymore! We’re miserable, trapped and infected, unable to grasp what was only expected. So much has been taken for granted, so many words that can never be taken back. (We’re going down, we’re going down…) A thread of hope is just enough for us to cling to. (We’re going down, we’re going down…) Hold me up, and I’ll hold you, too. We’re living in the moment before reality hits, and our hearts, our hearts, our teenage hearts just can’t say no. We can’t say no, we can’t say no… I’ll rock you, knock you, cut you down to size. So stop me, mock me, put me in my place. Beneath of the sheets, wrapped up in you, is where I find my peace. No, don’t stop, don’t stop, lose yourself in me. No, don’t stop, don’t stop, lose yourself in me, lose yourself in me. Blind me, bind me, put me on my knees. Lose yourself in me, lose yourself in me. Why, why do we do this? All we do is walk in circles, hoping something new, something new will replace what is broken. And you smile, but you’re missing all of your teeth. And I can’t help but feel that somehow this is all my fault. This is something that “sorry” can’t fix this time around. We’re living in the moment before reality hits, and our hearts, our hearts, our teenage hearts just can’t say no. We can’t say no, we can’t say no… I’ll rock you, knock you, cut you down to size. So stop me, mock me, put me in my place. Beneath of the sheets, wrapped up in you, is where I find my peace. No, don’t stop, don’t stop, lose yourself in me. No, don’t stop, don’t stop, lose yourself in me, lose yourself in me. Blind me, bind me, put me on my knees. Lose yourself in me, lose yourself in me. No, don’t stop, don’t stop, lose yourself in me. No, don’t stop, don’t stop, lose yourself in me, lose yourself in me. (This is who we are, this what we do…) Lose yourself in me, lose yourself in me… (We can’t say no, we just can’t say no…) We just can’t say no… (She Hates The Bird)
