[Verse 1]
Oh, I'm already at a loss
You're an ocean I can't cross
And my heart will pay the cost
Oh-whoa-oh
I know you're about to lure me in
Say "The water's safe to swim"
Let the story now begin
Oh, whoa-oh-oh

[Chorus]
'Cause I can see the red flags wavin'
But I know my heart is cavin' in
I can see there's just no savin' me
There's no way out, I'm goin' in
I wanna be good but I'm gonna be bad
'Cause I can see the red flags wavin'
I can see the red flags wavin'

[Verse 2]
Nobody but myself to blame
Like a moth darts to the flame
I cannot keep my hands clean
Oh-whoa
Even though every sign says "Save yourself"
Read the warnings to my health
I don't wanna help myself
Oh-whoa-oh-oh
[Chorus]
'Cause I can see the red flags wavin'
But I know my heart is cavin' in
I can see there's just no savin' me
There's no way out, I'm goin' in
I wanna be good but I'm gonna be bad
'Cause I can see the red flags wavin'
I can see the red flags wavin'

[Bridge]
I wanna be smart
Wanna protect my heart from pain along the way
But I can't hold back
Wanna step on the cracks
I just can't play it safe
I can't play it safe

[Chorus]
'Cause I can see the red flags wavin'
But I know my heart is cavin' in
I can see there's just no savin' me
There's no way out, I'm goin' in
I wanna be good but I'm gonna be bad
'Cause I can see the red flags wavin'
I can see the red flags wavin'
[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, red
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause I can see the red flags wavin', wavin'
I can see the red flag wavin'
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
