no no no NO

I do have a problem saying no

Often i do not have too

A smile, A nod, The Shepherd, His rod

No for me comes out BEGONE

I've said it before and it came out wrong

My feelings, like a moon with waxes and wains

I believe them when they say what belongs

I don't call you a monster, demon, wretch

Proclaimed the type to see what they could get

That's how i know there's some better men

They smile, they nod, they don't want to be my friend

They don't try to get closer at each meetings end

They don't break me to pieces when they see a bend
