Thought I'd learned my lesson, didn't learn it at all
I just keep getting bruised whenever I fall
Oh, I think I'd know better
I can't seem to pull it together
Red flags look like roses to me
I keep wanting what I don't need
Keep running to what I should run from
It's always the same old story
I'm good with what's not good for me
But the blame's on me, and I feel
Like a tragic romantic, like a slave to a heart
That keeps falling in love and just keeps breaking apart
I just can't understand it, like a moth to a flame
I just keep getting burnt and jump back in anyway
Tragic romantic, tragic romantic
I should try to go slow, I should put on the brakes
But I just rush in, make the same dumb mistakes
Oh, why, why can't I learn?
All this time and nonе the wiser
Red flags look likе roses to me
'Cause my heart's as blind as can be
And I don't see that ever changing
Can't get rid of these bad habits
Drawn to drama like a magnet
And it's drawn to me, and I feel
Like a tragic romantic, like a slave to a heart
That keeps falling in love and just keeps breaking apart
I just can't understand it, like a moth to a flame
I just keep getting burnt and jump back in anyway
Tragic romantic
Don't think that I'm ever gonna change
I guess, guess that I'm just made that way
I guess that it's just my fate to feel
Like a tragic romantic, like a slave to a heart
That keeps falling in love and just keeps breaking apart
I just can't understand it, like a moth to a flame
I just keep getting burnt and jump back in anyway
Tragic romantic, tragic romantic, tragic romantic
Tragic romantic
