Christian Lee Hutson
Flamingos

[Verse 1]
I'm taking the red-eye
Over the date line
A sea of slow walkers
All taking their sweet time

You’re on the phone with your brother
Sitting in the bay window
Taxis idling outside
Like pink lawn flamingos

You're planning a party
To bring in the new year
To clean out the cobwebs
Convince me to move here

[Chorus]
Losers remember the people who won
Winners are never afraid to losе
You only think about falling in love
I only think about you

[Verse 2]
You lived for a summer
In thе Silvia Hotel
Chasing paper airplanes
Down the stairwell
Your world was collapsing
You couldn't have stopped it
Your jokes became armor
Your pain became gossip

You were like a coyote
Stuck in a diorama
Born with a silver spoon
And golden handcuffs

[Chorus]
Losers remember the people who won
Winners are never afraid to lose
You only think about falling in love
I only think about you
I only think about you

[Verse 3]
I can be irritating
Quiet and moody
I feel like an orphan
That’s all there is to me

Watch you cradle the watermelon
Under your sweatshirt
You had a bad mom
I bet you'll be better
[Chorus]
Losers remember the people who won
Winners are never afraid to lose
You only think about falling in love
I only think about you
I only think about you
