From the recording Red Flags
Cloaked in a brooding melody and resolute beat, "Red Flags" unfurls the curtain behind the cycle of violence in toxic relationships as a cautionary tale. Organic instruments with electronic influences evoke a somber yet rustic atmosphere, one that may well leave the listener haunted with clarity.
Lyrics
Why must every fight end with a scream?
I can’t believe you’ve done that
I just wanted you
To say that our love is true
I guess this is how we’ll talk
From now until we’re dust
But you run your fingers through my hair
And I forget, I forget
That my vision becomes rosy
And the red flags all disappear
Like in a monster movie
They’ll come back to haunt me soon
These little white lies
That add up to a mountain
Of shame, of blame
Why do we play this stupid game?
It’s like a round robin of torture for two
I don’t get why you’re mad
I just wanted to see what life would be like
If I could just realize, realize, realize, realize
That vision becomes rosy
And the red flags all disappear
Like in a monster movie
They’ll come back to haunt me soon
Neither you or I can recognize
When we’ve gone too far
Yeah we’ve gone too far
And I can’t get far enough
So my vision becomes rosy
And the red flags all pull me back
And you wait for that moment
When I forget, when I forget (when I forget)
When we forget
