[Verse 1]

You said love me now, and it's understood

Not it wouldn't work, and it never could

Every single day was another lie

You had every chance, I guess your tongue was tied

But in case it wasn't, and you're still wondering

Why I'm upset and my heart is punctured

And you can't fake it, there's no mistaking

You couldn't take it

[Chorus]

'Cause I could have used a warning sign, I could have used something

To let me know it's not all fine, and you're leaving me instead

You said it would be alright, it's all in my head

So there weren't sirens in my mind, on the day you left

[Post-Chorus]

When I could have used a warning sign

(Woah oh, oh, ooh)

When I could have used a warning sign

(Woah oh, oh, ooh)

Yeah I could have used a warning sign

(Woah oh, oh, ooh)

Yeah I could have used a warning sign

(Woah oh, oh, ooh-ooh, yeah)

[Verse 2]

If you had said anything at all

None of this would've happened, at least a call

Or did you break your phone?

While you were running off

I guess you forgot, I'm comfortable in war

So let the rain in, it’s pretty ain't it?

You can say it, and save us pain in

The perfect downfall, ain't know it at all

In the end I guess you needed more

[Refrain]

And I pray you're doing much better

Taking everybody's heart with your beretta

Shots ringing out over your vendetta

But spilled blood don't make you better

And I pray you're doing much better

Taking everybody's heart with your beretta

Shots ringing out over your vendetta

But spilled blood don't make you

[Bridge]

'Cause I could have used a signal

I could have used one try, so I could convince you to stay for one more night

But you didn't listen, I had no chance to say

That my life will never be the same, if you don't stay

[Chorus]

'Cause I could have used a warning sign, I could have used something

To let me know it's not all fine, and you're leaving me instead

You said it would be alright, it's all in my head

So there weren't sirens in my mind, on the day you left

When I could have used a warning sign

[Refrain]

And I pray you're doing much better

Taking everybody's heart with your beretta

Shots ringing out over your vendetta

But spilled blood don't make you better

And I pray you're doing much better

Taking everybody's heart with your beretta

Shots ringing out over your vendetta

But spilled blood don't make you better

[Post-Chorus]

When I could have used a warning sign

(Woah oh, oh, ooh)

When I could have used a warning sign

(Woah oh, oh, ooh)

Yeah I could have used a warning sign

(Woah oh, oh, ooh)

Yeah I could have used a warning sign

(Woah oh, oh, ooh-ooh)
