Red Flags

I was told about the bad boys
Breaking hearts is something that they all enjoy
They treat a good girl like a new toy
They pick her up and throw her down
Leaving her soul destroyed

Can somebody sound the alarm?
'Cause I think he's laying on the charms
And now I wanna be his everything
I wanna give him everything

I'm losing control
It's taking its toll
Even though I see the red flags flying high
It's not how I roll
It wasn't the goal
For me to lose myself
In the diamond sparkle in your eyes

You ain't got no shame
Saying you should hate the player
Really not the game
Why did you fan the flames
When you're the kinda guy that I could never have a claim on?

I shoulda never let my guard down
Now it feels like something's missing when you're not around
If only I had known better
I really shoulda been smarter

I didn't hear the bells ring
The puppet master has me by the strings
And now I wanna be his everything
I wanna give him everything

I'm losing control
It's taking its toll
Even though I see the red flags flying high
It's not how I roll
It wasn't the goal
For me to lose myself
In the diamond sparkle in your eyes

I wish I knew
The pain i'd go through
And now there's nothing I can do
There's really nothing I can do

Somebody told me it was gonna end this way
I shoulda known
Thought I knew better and decided to stay
Ended up on my own

Really wish I knew
