about

Where I Say No is a straight forward rocker all about breaking free from a toxic, codependent, bi-polar relationship...we've all been there.

lyrics

You spin me up, you shut me down;
a broken record spinning round and around;
You tell your stories, I tell mine;
but every one is just another line in the sand.
The wind sweeps them up, the tide takes them out,
but I guess I thought that's what true love is all about.

This is the part where you say, "stay.
I can't live without your love,
But I'm tired of all the games that you play."
This is the part where I say, "no.
I finally found my voice and it's all I can say,
I'm better off without you anyway."

You heat me up, then you put me on ice;
shame on me, you fooled me once, you fooled me twice.
No I can't stand for all you've made me lie down,
you fill my sails again just to run me aground.
Your inconsistency is as stable as you,
the dissonance between what you say and what you do.

This is the part where you say, "stay.
I can't live without your love,
But I'm tired of all the games that you play."
This is the part where I say, "no.
I finally found my voice and it's all I can say,
I'm better off without you anyway."

I don't know how we got this far,
or why we ever thought that it would last,
this knock-down, drag out, bi-polar love

This is the part where you say, "stay.
I can't live without your love,
But I'm tired of all the games that you play."
This is the part where I say, "no.
I finally found my voice and it's all I can say,
I'm better off without you anyway."

(I love you, I hate you, I never want to see you again, oh baby please don't go. I need you, I don't need anything at all, although I know you always thought I was better off without you anyway.)
