"Tornado Warnings" lyrics
"Tornado Warnings"
We were never in the park
Talking on a seesaw, teetering with our feelings in the dark
Ignoring tornado warnings
He didn't hold me in his arms
We didn't stumble over the pages of our relationship arc
Ignoring tornado warnings
Don't understand how quickly we get
Right back in our rhythm without missing a step
And logically, the last thing I should have on my mind
But I want you there sometimes
I guess maybe that's why I'm lying to my therapist
I keep saying things like "I never saw him and we never kissed"
Now I think, somehow, in my mind
If I could convince him if he doesn't see it, then maybe it doesn't exist
I think he's onto me every time I say I'm over that son of a bitch
I'm lying to my therapist
I deserve an hour in a week
To focus on my thoughts
Not so obsessed with yours, I can't hear myself speak
I deserve my own consideration
But sometimes I wish I kept
Some of my feelings in the basement
So I'd still have some left
Don't understand how quickly we get
Right back in our rhythm without missing a step
And logically, the last thing I should have on my mind
But I want you there sometimes
I guess maybe that's why I'm lying to my therapist
I keep saying things like "I never saw him and we never kissed"
Now I think, somehow, in my mind
If I could convince him if he doesn't see it, then maybe it doesn't exist
I think he's onto me every time I say I'm over that son of a bitch
I'm lying to my therapist
I'll drive you home
You drive me crazy
But that's not gonna stop me
I'll call you out
You call me "baby"
But that's not gonna stop me
From lying to my therapist
I keep saying things like "I never saw him and we never kissed"
Now I think, somehow, in my mind
If I could convince him if he doesn't see it then maybe it doesn't exist
I think he's onto me every time I say I'm over that son of a bitch
I'm lying to my therapist

Sabrina Carpenter shared the story behind "Tornado Warnings" in an interview with Rolling Stone, "The coolest thing about this story is that it's so literal. Well, both literal and metaphorical, because I use tornado warnings as a metaphor for being in situations where you know it's probably going to be bad for you, but you decide to ignore them. But this was based on a true story where I was in the middle of a park on a seesaw with someone that I shouldn't have been with and then it started to hail and then I got a tornado warning on my phone and ignored it. The next day I had therapy, and I completely did not tell my therapist anything because I was afraid that he was going to be mad at me. And I was like, 'Why am I spending money on this therapy session if I'm gonna lie to you?'."
