[Verse 1] Neon rain on the avenue, I’m walking through the blur Heartbeat like a bassline, but I still know what I prefer You can reach for silver shadows, you can call my name in light But if my lips don’t open wide, then the answer’s in the night Pre-Chorus I can feel the pressure rising, like a storm inside my chest But I’m not here to be persuaded, I’m not here to second-guess Every step I take is shaking, every word I say is clear If you’re asking for a maybe, let me make it crystal-clear Chorus No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no Hear it in the echo as it hits and then it goes No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no I can love the music, but I own the way I grow No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no When the lights are flashing, let the whole wide world know No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no I’m a fire, I’m a voice, and I’m never letting go [Verse 2] I’ve been soft and I’ve been shaken, I’ve been quiet in the crowd I’ve been taught to smile through danger, to keep turning my head down But the rhythm in my body says I’m done with being small I won’t hand you my surrender just because you made a call Pre-Chorus I can feel the floor is trembling, like a city under glass But my boundary is a border and you’re not allowed to pass Every no is gold and holy, every no deserves its frame If you need a yes to hold you, then you never heard my name Chorus No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no Hear it in the echo as it hits and then it goes No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no I can love the music, but I own the way I grow No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no When the lights are flashing, let the whole wide world know No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no I’m a fire, I’m a voice, and I’m never letting go [Bridge] If I say stop, then stop it If I say go away, just go No is not a puzzle to be solved in undertone I can shake, I can break, I can still stand in the glow I am not your maybe, baby I am not your open door I am the line, I am the limit, I am worth protecting more Final Chorus No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no Let it thunder through the speakers till the skyline overflows No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no I will rise in every heartbeat, in the glitter, in the snow No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no And if you hear me once, then you already know No means no, no, no, no, no, no, no I’m a fire, I’m a voice, and I’m never letting go [Outro] No means no No means no No means no And that’s the only answer I owe
