red flags

Cold summers
And distant stares
No love for me
Got no one to care
But maybe that's all I need
All your words land like
Sweet nothings on my ear
I dance around a feeling
That we know isn't here
Just an illusion of a love story
But I don't know if I like you or
If you like me
Or maybe I just want you cuz you're
In my fantasy
All these red flags I choose
Not to see
I satiate on the attention
You're depriving me
Open up to you
knowing you won't stay
But it's alright
The ending's always the same
I chase to get my ego bruised
But honey I prefer it that way
Exploit me so
That I can taste desire
You can't hurt me more
I've been through the fire
And baby I like the fumes
Leave me with your ghost so you don't have to stay
Fuck being a hopeless romantic
Nobody wants this skin to begin with
And even if you could love me
I'd rather take the alternative
But I don't know if I like you or
If you like me
Or maybe you just want me cuz I'm
In your fantasy
All these red flags I choose
Not to see
Cuz you're not here forever and your
Pleasure's on me
I'm not ur kind of lover
Let's exist in this fleeting moment together
Sorry dear I know
I'm not the one you wanted to be with tonight
But perhaps one day
We could be friends
And dance the pain away
But I don't know if I like you or
If you like me
Or maybe I just need you cuz you're
In my fantasy
All these red flags I choose
Not to see
Cuz I don't need a lover
Just somebody who wants me
