Permission

Hold that thought
It's yours to keep
I never asked you
What you think

I never asked how you felt
Told you to love me and no one else

Never asked for permission, permission
Permission, oh, permission
Never asked for permission, permission
Permission, I never asked you

Hold that thought, it's yours to keep
I never bother with what you think
I'll pull those words, right from your mouth
Like string wound teeth, tryna yank them out

I'll never ask how it felt
You're gonna love me and no one else

Don't need your permission, permission
Permission, oh, permission
Don't need your permission, permission
Permission, I never asked you

I was young and never wanted
To touch a man or be a woman
You kissed me and I cried out loud
No, no, I didn't want you in my body

You never asked me to invite you in
You never asked for anything
You never asked, you never asked
You never asked for

Permission, permission
Permission, oh, permission
You never asked for permission, permission, permission
You never asked me for me
