this is how i learn to say no - Emeline

Fuck the apologies, done being sorry for

Wanting the things that I want

I broke my back carrying baggage for strangers

Who only ever did me wrong

Was it more appeasing when I was just pleasing?

I look good on my knees

Sucks you’re never gonna get me back again

When I got healthy, did that make you hate me?

And now, I’m never losing sleep, I’m over it

This is how I learn to say no

Take your pretty words and go choke

People talk shit, say they’re gonna get better

I hold my breath, I can’t hold it forever

This is how I learn to say no

All of the butterflies turn into vicious lies

I’d rather be on my own

Tired of people being sad, told my mom to leave my dad

Sometimes you just gotta go

Was it more appeasing when I was just pleasing?

I look good on my knees

Sucks you’re never gonna get me back again

When I got healthy, did that make you hate me?

And now, I’m never losing sleep, I’m over it

This is how I learn to say no

Take your pretty words and go choke

People talk shit, say they’re gonna get better

I hold my breath, I can’t hold it forever

This is how I learn to say no

(This is how I learn to say no)

I think what we proved is that we are family, and no matter what,

we’re always gonna be a fucking family
