My Friend Chris Lyrics by Next Attempt

Red Flags

2019

[Intro]
She was a short-haired girl
Who for half of a year made up my world
But stories that start like this always end with dishonesty
[Verse 1]
I had a friend who went through it all
His voice of reason broke things off
But after she led him through her bedroom window
I guess, adrenaline overwhelmed his ego
[Refrain]
I should've noticed all the signs
I guess, it's true to say that love is completely blind
[Pre-Chorus]
Too late I realized
[Chorus]
She was sleeping with him
And he was thinking of her
But nobody would tell me, because they didn't want me to get hurt
And it's way too late to accept apologies
Just say your prayers, and hope to God I never have to see you again
[Verse 2]
I've grown fond of moving on
Replacing torture with another's bed
Standing on ashes from burnt down bridges are an ecstasy I'll never forget
[Refrain]
I've still got most of my friends
And you've got your man
I guess, it's safe to say it all worked out in the end
[Pre-Chorus]
Too late I realized
[Chorus]
She was sleeping with him
And he was thinking of her
But nobody would tell me, because they didn't want me to get hurt
And it's way too late to accept apologies
Just say your prayers, and hope to God you'll never have to rely on me
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
I'd rather have you tell me the truth
Instead of pulling on broken ropes
And tightening the noose
[Chorus]
She was sleeping with him
And he was thinking of her
But nobody would tell me, because they didn't want me to get hurt
And it's way too late to think about what we could be
Because I'm only gonna see you as another enemy
[Outro]
Hey, how's it going, Chris?
I hope you know that you're missed
But you can just be with her instead
I'll see you in hell, when I'm dead
