(Verse)
I’m a late-night ride with the radio loud,
Bottle on the dash, got my head in the clouds,
Got a past full of smoke and a heart full of scars,
And a reputation built in them dive bar bars.
I ain’t good with love, I just play my part,
Leave a trail of goodbye in a pickup parked,
Yeah I laugh, yeah I live, yeah I act like I’m free,
But forever ain’t somethin’ you’ll find in me.
(Pre-Chorus)
You see the boots, the smile, the way I talk that game,
But there’s a whole lotta hurt behind this name…
(Chorus)
Don’t fall for me, cause I’m a walking red flag,
I’m a wounded sparrow, a shot down stag.
I’ve got scars that do not show,
I’ve got a past that no one knows.
Don’t fall for me, I’m not the one for you,
The love you find in me ain’t that true.
No one knows my history,
No one has seen that side of me.
Yea girl, don’t you fall for me!
(Verse)
I’m a backseat kiss at a red light glow,
A “baby I’ll change” that you already know,
I’ll say all the words that you wanna hear,
Then disappear like smoke in the rearview mirror.
I ain’t proud of it, but it’s who I am,
Half heart, half gone, don’t give a damn,
You deserve a man that’ll give you forever,
Not a storm rollin’ through in this kind of weather.
(Pre-Chorus)
Yeah I might look right in that neon light,
But I’m the wrong kind of right…
(Chorus)
Don’t fall for me, cause I’m a walking red flag,
I’m a wounded sparrow, a shot down stag.
I’ve got scars that do not show,
I’ve got a past that no one knows.
Don’t fall for me, I’m not the one for you,
The love you find in me ain’t that true.
No one knows my history,
No one has seen that side of me.
Yea girl, don’t you fall for me!
(Bridge – Rap)
Yeah, I been down that road, left hearts in the dust,
Said “this time’s different” but it never was,
Got demons in the dark, got ghosts in my head,
Got words I shoulda said but I never said.
You’re lookin’ at me like I’m somethin’ to save,
But I’m too far gone and too set in my ways,
I’ll wreck your world tryna fix my own,
So I’m tellin’ you now ‘fore the feelin’ grows…
(Chorus)
Don’t fall for me, cause I’m a walking red flag,
I’m a wounded sparrow, a shot down stag.
I’ve got scars that do not show,
I’ve got a past that no one knows.
Don’t fall for me, I’m not the one for you,
The love you find in me ain’t that true.
No one knows my history,
No one has seen that side of me.
Yea girl, don’t you fall for me!
Don’t fall for me, cause I’m a walking red flag,
I’m a wounded sparrow, a shot down stag.
I’ve got scars that do not show,
I’ve got a past that no one knows.
Don’t fall for me, I’m not the one for you,
The love you find in me ain’t that true.
No one knows my history,
No one has seen that side of me.
Yea girl, don’t you fall for me!
