Cautious
Tyler Shaw Lyrics

I heard about you
I have heard stories about you from various people

I've heard it all
I have heard all the stories about you including the good and the bad

So many stories
There are a lot of stories circulating about you

You know from so and so
These stories are coming from various sources

I should know better
I am aware of the risks involved but still interested in taking a chance

But you know how it goes
I am aware that the outcome might not be favorable but still intrigued by the possibility

Like I'm off to a flame
I am drawn to the danger despite the potential consequences

Look like an angel
You appear beautiful and innocent

In devil's clothes
But your true nature might be villainous

A perfect picture
You present yourself perfectly meaning you possess all the great qualities

Hanging on burning walls
This perfect image could be a façade because the foundations it is built upon are shaky

They say your kiss is deadly
Rumors suggest that engaging with you could lead to a fatal result

But I still wanna know
Despite the rumors and potential dangers, I am still curious about you

Pull me into the flame
I am willingly submitting myself to the danger you represent

We're burnin' up
Things are heating up between us

I'll be cautious
I will try to protect myself despite my curiosity and attraction to you

See you're a gamble
Interacting with you is risky

I roll the dice
I am willing to take on this challenge despite the risks

If I don't get you first
If you don't harm me before I can make a move

I'll flip the quarter twice
I will take another chance despite already being exposed to the danger of you

I'm standing in the dark
I am lost and uncertain about my actions

Waiting for your light
I am looking for guidance from you despite your potential threat to me

The closer I get to you
The more involved I become with you

The deeper I fall
The more I am risking my safety

And I'm treading slowly
I am trying to move with caution despite my growing interest

But I'm still lost in you
I am still caught up in my attraction to you despite the potential danger

Hmm, I should know better
I am aware that my actions could lead to negative consequences but still unable to control my feelings
