Unheeded Warnings: Navigating Love's Red Flags
Lyrics
She's so used to dating boys who can't commit or text back
She's accustomed to dating boys who lack commitment or responsiveness.
When she meets a nice guy
When she encounters a nice guy, she perceives him as a red flag.
She just thinks that he's a red flag
She remains fixated on her ex-partner.
She's still stuck on her ex
She avoids engaging in committed relationships.
Won't do relationships
She disregards advice from her friends.
Won't listen to her friends
Her friends repeatedly warn her, saying:
They keep saying
"I know you know"
I know you know
Repetition of friends' warnings that the boy she's involved with is not suitable for her.
I know you know
