Verse 1:
So many scarlet shaded flags
Waving around my head
But I choose to look right past them
Why do I want you so bad?
I should just stay home instead
Didn’t you know that you’re my favorite shade of red?
Pre Chorus:
I cried out inside
My heart is getting low on supply
Your love language is so versatile
Should I hold my breath?
Cause’ this could take a while
Chorus:
Can I try you on
Until you’ve gone?
I’m backing down tonight
Wavin’ my flag up way too high
I’ve been withdrawn
In my thoughts that haunt
With the way you move
I don’t think that I’ll get to choose
Verse 2:
A fight or flight greeting
Delight turns to sinking
And I don’t know if I remember how to swim
Cause’ the water may bе freezing
Enough just to burn my skin
But it makes me want to go out on a limb
Pre Chorus:
Thе hurt, it can’t hide
But you show up and the pain subsides
The sound of your voice could get away with a crime
Can I hold my breath
Long enough for you to be mine?
Chorus:
Bridge:
Oh
What’s it like to be so
Cold?
But give heat off like a
Glow
That I follow the whole way home
Oh whoa
Hope
We’re lucky the way we roll
2 dice but there’s 13 holes
And it’s out of my control
Verse 3:
These flags keep wavin’ all in time
Some of the colors lose their shine
But yours still seems to fly so bright
While all the others intertwine
And overshadow mine
Maybe the flag you’re waving is the finish line
Chorus
Bridge
