Red Flags Lyrics by Nate Good, Swilson
I’m a sucker for them red flags.
I dig you’ve got me hooked.
Like some trophy catch, I took the bait, not blaming looks.
I’m a sucker for a bad thing, tryna find a little good.
Right now you think I know each page I wrote the book.
I don’t wanna miss misunderstood, tryna start a flame with some burnout wood.
Tired of playing games, I know I can’t win.
But rack em up, play again.
I’m a sucker for a red flag.
I’m [?] for the challenge.
You wanna chase off whiskey straight, that might help me catch my balance.
They say my heart knows what it wants, it just don’t know what it means.
But you thinkin’ what you want, what you get is what you see.
If you pour me something strong, say I love you misbelieve.
Thought the problem all along was you, right now I think it’s me.
I remember all the lights that led to that first date.
When we hit that little town for your birthday.
You were my best friend, but in the worst way.
That took you from a 9 to a 5 like a workday.
Red flags, now I’m wavin’ a white.
You got me fightin’ for my life like you Dane or white.
I used to blame you, now I blame me and my specs.
Cause I saw I wasn’t right, but I still know I’m right.
It’s foolish thinkin’ that a little brown face got me seein’ straight.
But feelin’ like I’m close from a ways away.
How many years we gotta take it day by day.
How many times I gotta be somethin’ for you, I ain’t.
They say my heart knows what it wants, it just don’t know what it means.
But you thinkin’ what you want, what you get is what you see.
If you pour me something strong, say I love you misbelieve.
Thought the problem all along was you, right now I think it’s me.
