Lyrics

You said love's supposed to hurt a little And so I learned to bleed in quiet tones You dressed your chaos up as comfort And I called your damage home I thought your silence was a language I just hadn't learned to speak But baby, all your whispered secrets Were just ways to make me weep Every warning felt like warmth And I ran straight into the storm I saw every red flag burning But I thought the smoke looked pretty You told me you were poison And I drank to prove I'd stay I kept my heart wide open While you carved your name inside me You said I made you better But you bled me dry that day I saw every red flag waving And I loved you anyway You held me like a hostage But I begged you not to go I kept finding new excuses For the things I didn't want to know You turned my sunlight into grayscale And I still said it was fine Guess I loved the way it hurt When I thought your pain was mine I mistook the breaking glass For something beautiful at last I saw every red flag burning But I thought the smoke looked pretty You told me you were poison And I drank to prove I'd stay I kept my heart wide open While you carved your name inside me You said I made you better But you bled me dry that day I saw every red flag waving And I loved you anyway You warned me who you were And I stayed to prove you wrong Now your ghost lives in my bloodstream Still humming our old song So sing it, sing it, sing it Till it kills what's left of me I saw every red flag burning But I thought the smoke looked pretty You told me you were poison And I drank to prove I'd stay I kept my heart wide open While you tore it all away You said I made you better But I just fed your flames Yeah, I saw the red flags flying And I ran into the flames You told me you were poison And I stayed anyway Thanks for watching
