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I’ve been withdrawn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
