Cover art for Warning lyrics by Cymbals Eat Guitars

Warning is and will forever be one of my favorite songs. Ever. Let me explain why. There was this girl who rode my bus. I had noticed her for years, and just last year, I gained the courage to try to be friends with her. Almost immediately, I began calling her every night, talking to her every morning, and overall just becoming really attached to her. She tolerated it, and actually, we became best friends, because she didn’t talk to many people either, for reasons I never understood. I learned that she had a Spotify account, so I made a playlist for her and while searching for songs I stumbled upon this one. It was the first in the playlist. So she knows this song too. Anyways, after some time…. I decided I loved her and didn’t tell her… began to get a little psycho on her. I got jealous if she was talking to somebody else. I began getting self-conscious and overthinking things. I even hacked into her email, to find out that… She didn’t want to be even my friend anymore. And I felt hurt. Badly hurt. It took a lot of writing and fanfiction to get better. I think this song is for people like me. For the people who are handfuls. For the people who are empty, and sometimes depressed, and for the people who are sometimes creepy and wants to stop but can’t. This song is like a warning to the people who get close to them. At least, that’s how I feel.
