If I Say Yes

[Verse 1]
My phone lights up like a warning sign,
Same name, same time, every night.
I don’t open it, I already know
What you’ll say, how it goes.

You say you’ve changed, you say you’ve grown,
You say you hate being alone.
But every word just feels like proof
You still don’t hear my “no.”

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t miss you, I miss the quiet.
I don’t want you, I want you gone.
But the silence only comes when I give in,
And that’s what scares me most.

[Chorus]
He keeps texting like I owe him peace,
Like my absence is cruelty.
And I hate that part of me that thinks
If I say yes, you’ll finally leave.

I don’t want you back, I want relief,
I want my life to feel like mine again.
But I’m scared the only way you’ll stop
Is if I let you back in.

[Verse 2]
You show up with flowers at my door,
Like pain has a return policy.
Like love grows back where you burned it down
If you say sorry carefully.

You broke me into pieces once,
Taught me what worthless feels like.
And now you’re standing there with roses
Like thorns didn’t cut me twice.

[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t want me — you want forgiveness.
You don’t love me — you miss control.
And I shouldn’t have to disappear
Just to make you let go.

[Chorus]
He keeps texting like I owe him peace,
Like my silence is a crime.
And I hate that part of me that thinks
If I say yes, I’ll get my life back.

I don’t want you back, I want relief,
I want my chest to stop feeling tight.
But I’m scared the only way you’ll stop
Is if I ruin my own life.

[Bridge]
Love doesn’t beg.
Love doesn’t chase.
Love doesn’t show up
After being erased.

If you’d really changed,
You’d walk away.
Not keep knocking
Until I break.

[Chorus]
He keeps texting, but I’m still here,
Still choosing me, still holding ground.
I won’t trade my freedom
For the quiet you promise now.

I don’t want you back.
I want my peace.
And even if you never leave —
I won’t go back just to make it cease.

[Outro]
If saying yes is the only way you stop…
Then my no has to be louder.
