you can shake my soul

no matter how many times you'd like

i'm not afraid to tell you no

i'm not afraid to look in your eyes

see my reflection

and tell you no

i will not go with you

i will stand here

i will stay rooted

i will not join you in this fantasy

you so badly want me to enter

i am grounded

my mind keeps me sane

my heart is fighting me

but i'm not telling you i love you

i refuse.
