Kimberose Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now it's ringing in my head
Those games we played ain′t funny anymore
Now we're faking it instead
New lies will come tomorrow
New ways to deceive
Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
One life, one chance, one go at romance
You better rеad the warning signs
(Oh, oh, oh-oh)
Those songs we sang sound so out of kеy
Dead melodies
Damn, it's so strange, things change so quickly
How could I not see it coming?
(Oh, oh, oh-oh)
New lies will come tomorrow
New ways to deceive
You better
Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
One life, one chance, one go at romance
You better read the warning signs, oh
Oh, no more
The ship has left the shore
Oh, we can′t ignore
This ain′t like it was before
Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
One life, one chance, one go at romance
You better read the warning signs
Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
One life, one chance, one go at romance
You better read the warning signs
Kimberose's song "Warning Signs" is a warning against falling in love too quickly without noticing the red flags. The song reflects on a relationship that seemed perfect and everlasting, but eventually became toxic and filled with lies. The opening lines, "That time you said we'll be forever more, Now it's ringing in my head," reflect the singer's memories of promises made that were ultimately broken. The once fun and lighthearted games played in the relationship have turned into deceit and façade. The line "New lies will come tomorrow, New ways to deceive," indicates that the deception will never end and that the partner will continue to deceive.
The chorus urges the listener to heed warning signs in relationships. The repetition of "Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs" emphasizes the importance of noticing red flags in relationships. The lyrics "One life, one chance, one go at romance, You better read the warning signs" are a reminder that we should be cautious with our hearts and choose wisely when it comes to love. The last verse indicates that the relationship has already ended, and the singer is coming to terms with the fact that it has come to an end due to the warning signs they chose to overlook.

That time you said we'll be forever more
You promised that we would always be together
Now it's ringing in my head
But now, that promise only echoes in my mind
Those games we played ain't funny anymore
The playful things we used to do are no longer enjoyable
Now we're faking it instead
So we pretend to still have fun, but it's not genuine
New lies will come tomorrow
There will always be new falsehoods to tell
New ways to deceive
And new ways to trick and betray
You better Read the warning, see the warning, hear the warning signs
Listen to the signs that something is wrong
One life, one chance, one go at romance
You only get one chance at love in this life
Those songs we sang sound so out of key
The songs we used to sing together now feel discordant
Dead melodies
Lifeless tunes that no longer hold meaning
Damn, it's so strange, things change so quickly
It's amazing how rapidly things can fall apart
How could I not see it coming?
I can't believe I didn't realize what was happening
Oh, no more The ship has left the shore
It's too late now, things have already changed irreversibly
Oh, we can't ignore This ain't like it was before
We can't pretend that things are the same as they used to be
