Red Flag
Farewell to Red Flags: Embracing Change and Moving On
Lyrics
Hold on
Asking to wait or hold on.
I'm leaving now
Stating the departure or leaving.
Pipe down
Requesting quietness or calm down.
I'm serious
Asserting seriousness.
I can't regret all the things that I'm feeling
Expressing an inability to regret current emotions or feelings.
It's not my fault
Denying responsibility for certain circumstances or emotions.
And if I may digress
Indicating a potential shift in the topic or focus.
It's not me disagreeing with you
Clarifying that disagreement isn't personal.
Switch off
Requesting to turn something off, possibly metaphorical.
I'm gone for good
Confirming a permanent departure.
Leave me
Asking someone to let the speaker go.
Do you think you could?
Questioning the possibility of being let go.
I can't confront you, I'll just disappear
Expressing an inability to confront the person, choosing disappearance instead.
Maybe I'll feel differently in a year
Speculating that emotions might change in the future.
But I don't know
Uncertainty about the current emotional state.
It's not so good now
Describing a current emotional state as not favorable.
But I know this
Confidently acknowledging a certain truth.
You don't mind
Suggesting that the person addressed doesn't care about wasting time.
Wasting all your time on this
Implying that the person is managing despite wasting time.
Cause you're getting by
Considering giving up to potentially improve sleep.
I could give it up
Questioning if that sacrifice would be sufficient for the addressed person.
Maybe then I'll get some sleep
Confidently predicting the addressed person's acceptance of spending time on someone else.
Would that be enough for you?
Questioning if that action would satisfy the addressed person.
I know you won't mind
Confidently asserting the addressed person's acceptance of spending time on another individual.
Spending all your time on him
Confirming the person's capability to manage despite spending time on another.
Cause you're getting by
Stating the decision to give up on things worked hard for, implying resignation.
So I'm giving up
Expressing the feeling of inadequacy despite efforts.
All the things I've worked to keep
Asserting the insufficiency of efforts despite trying.
But it's not enough
Reiterating the inadequacy of the efforts made.
