Rewind (Did You Hear Me Say No)

(Intro)

“No… no… no…

Rewind… rewind…

I’m still awake…”

(Verse 1)

I wore a smile, I played it cool

Thought I was safe, I followed the rules

We laughed, we talked, I let my guard down

But inside, the silence started to drown

(Pre-Chorus)

I said “no” — not loud, but clear

You looked right past my rising fear

Frozen still, I couldn’t fight

You stole what never was yours that night

(Chorus)

Did you hear me say no? (Say no…)

Did you feel me go cold? (Go cold…)

Did you see me shaking inside? (Inside…)

When your hands took what they shouldn’t hold?

Rewind, rewind

Now I’m trapped in memories I can’t outrun

Bleeding in the dark, you call it love

Did you hear me say no? (Say no…)

(Verse 2)

Bathroom floor, my knees they shake

Pain and tears I can’t erase

Pulled my soul through broken glass

Trying to scrub away the past

(Pre-Chorus 2)

I said “stop”, I tried to breathe

You closed the door, swallowed the key

Now I wake with echoes in my head

Pieces of myself I can’t mend

(Chorus)

Did you hear me say no? (Say no…)

Did you feel me let go? (Let go…)

Did you notice the silence inside? (Inside…)

Where laughter used to grow? (Used to grow…)

Rewind, rewind

Haunted by the sound of your voice

Pretending I ever had a choice

Did you hear me say no? (Say no…)

(Bridge)

And they ask why I never told…

But how do you speak when you’re numb and cold?

This was not a song, not a kiss, not right —

It was me, afraid, in the dead of night

Rewind, rewind

I feel my body outside myself

I scream in silence

I’m alive

I’m shaking

I survived

(Chorus)

Did you hear me say no? (Say no…)

Even now, do you know? (Do you know…)

This pain doesn’t fade with time

It sleeps behind my eyes (behind my eyes…)

Rewind, rewind

You took more than you’ll ever see

But you don’t get to define me

Did you hear me say no? (Say no…)

(Outro)

Say no… say no…

Rewind… rewind…

No…

I’m still awake…
