Red Flag Candy

[Verse 1]
You’re a walking red flag
Can’t afford the price tag
Smiling with that painted grin
Sweet talk
Venom on your skin
You poison everyone you meet
I can see it in my sleep
While I’m waiting
Counting sheep
You reap what you sow
So cheap
[Pre-Chorus]
Candy on your crooked tongue
Every word a loaded gun
I’ve been studying your tricks
Every sugar hit makes me sick
[Chorus]
You’re a red flag candy
Wrapped in pretty plastic
Looks so good
But the aftertaste is tragic
Bite down once and the center’s full of damage
Red flag candy
Red flag habit
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
All your little party games
Glitter over gasoline
You light matches
Walk away
Then pretend your hands are clean
I was almost pulled inside
By the sparkle in your lies
Now I watch you from the side
As your halo melts in dye
[Bridge]
[whispered vocals] Lick your lips
You think you win
But I won’t let you in
I’m the one who got away
You’re the mess you have to taste
[crescendo] All your sugar
All your smoke
Every promise that you broke
Now they’re choking on your show
You reap what you sow
You know
[Chorus]

pop, Dark candy-coated pop over glossy synth bass and tight drums; female vocals with a sly, taunting delivery. Verses stay minimal and percussive, pre-chorus climbs with stacked whispers, and the chorus explodes into sugary hooks and distorted backing chants. Bridge strips to bass and claps, then slams back into a final, high-energy chorus., sleep
