about

"Warning Signs" was inspired by the abrupt ending of a certain past relationship that left me feeling completely blindsided and quite resentful. I was compelled to write this song as a way to express my unresolved anger, but also my realization of why it ended. It is about becoming aware of all the red flags and issues I failed to notice in my relationship until I was set free from it.

lyrics

I saw a pale sky from above the trees
There was a red light as I approached your street
And the ground shook until my knees were weak
Once the waves crashed it became clear to me

But the whole time I was captivated by your love
Saying oh my love
Saying oh my love
But now I’m disillusioned by all your love
‘Cause all your love
It was not enough

I should’ve known it all those times before
I should’ve known that you would walk out that door
I should’ve known it all those times before
But you wanted more so this time I’m sure

I should’ve known it all those times before
I should’ve known that you would walk out that door
I should’ve known it all those times before
But you wanted more so this time I’m sure

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

As time went on
The tea got cold
The flames burned out
Your tone grew old
Seasons changed
And so did you
But only hindsight knew

‘Cause the whole time I was captivated by your love
Saying oh my love
Saying oh my love
But now I’m disillusioned by all your love
‘Cause all your love It was not enough

I should’ve known it all those times before
I should’ve known that you would walk out that door
I should’ve known it all those times before
But you wanted more so this time I’m sure

I should’ve known it all those times before
I should’ve known that you would walk out that door
I should’ve known it all those times before
But you wanted more so this time I’m sure

I should’ve known
Oh oh oh oh oh
I should’ve known
Yeah

But next time I won’t be so blind
To all these warning signs
Won’t be so blind
To all these warning signs
