I Say No To This

 I don't say no to this
No
I don't say no to this
and the body of my actions
is all mine

I see red
Yes
I see red
There was no gun to my head

I never dreamed this dream
not once
in days gone by
there was no high
and only worthlessness

The body of my actions is all mine
but that doesn't mean I should spread
for you
today
tomorrow

I don't say no to this
because I don't want you in my mouth
