Red Flags

Cut up by your ripped jeans, temperatures rise

Feel touched when you’re near me, no space at your side

Hit hard by your sentences, trip when you move

I keep my distances as I’m looking through

Move my mind across yours

Slip my eyes across yours

But I wish for the worst and I pray for closed doors

I’m always looking for red flags

Looking for a reason to drop out

I’m waiting to watch when you go bad

‘Cause these red flags are easier than taking these walls down

Too close, need a place to hide

Don’t want you here

I know how to find reasons why

Don’t know how to stop when I start to feel

Make me leave before it gets too real

Move my mind across yours

Slip my eyes across yours

But I wish for the worst and I pray for closed doors

I’m always looking for red flags

Looking for a reason to drop out

I’m waiting to watch when you go bad

‘Cause these red flags are easier than taking these walls down

Give me a reason, make up my mind

Give me a reason, so you won’t have to learn mine

Give me a reason before I get stuck

Please close this door so I won’t have to open up

I won’t, I won’t, I won’t

I’m always looking for red flags

Looking for a reason to drop out

I’m waiting to watch when you go bad

‘Cause these red flags are easier than taking these walls down
