I did not say yes

I could not say no

It's an act of rebellion

And to you, it's a phase

No, I'm cynical

I see through the flaws

This system will kill us

You close your eyes

And tell me that

I'm a disease

So I act along

Since you see me as one

You give me something

You expect something, too

I don't think that way

I'm grateful

But I don't owe you a gift back

I love you

But you can't step on me

I walk tiptoe around you

I know when you notice me,

You'll try to love me

And your love has always been painful

Yet you disregard it

Because it has no value

It doesn't earn you anything

I can't let you know

I hate being with you

Yet I have no choice

I am connected to you

A bond by blood

It'll never be taken

Unless my life be taken

So you see, why

I did not say yes

I could not say no
