Late Night Left On Read

Blue ticks

No text

Heart read

Not checked (yeah)

You pop up on my screen then you disappear

Type three dots, then they vanish like you switched the gear

Got me scrolling through our thread like it’s last year

Laughing at the jokes, then I feel that fear

You out with your friends, I can see your story

I’m here in my bed, arguing with my worries

How you make me feel high, then you dip in a hurry

Got my chest doing laps, running circles, blurry

Why you got me late night, left on read

Talking to the ceiling, replaying what I said

Did I say too much, did I scare you off instead

Or you just like power, holding over my head

Why you got me late night, left on read

Refreshing that chat till my eyes turn red

Tryna play it cool but I’m cracked, I’m spread

All over these sheets where your name still rests (oh-oh)

Friends say “leave it, they gon’ hit you when they wanna”

But they don’t hear my heart arguing with my honor

Do I double text, triple text, call you “mama”?

Or do I ghost back, turn calm into drama

I know you see my face in the tiny icon

Know you feel that buzz when my name lights on

We both act busy, both act grown

But I’m still that kid when you pick up the phone

Why you got me late night, left on read

Talking to the ceiling, replaying what I said

Did I say too much, did I scare you off instead

Or you just like power, holding over my head

Why you got me late night, left on read

Refreshing that chat till my eyes turn red

Tryna play it cool but I’m cracked, I’m spread

All over these sheets where your name still rests

Maybe in the morning you’ll say you fell asleep (fell asleep)

I’ll pretend to believe you, lie to my belief

We both know the game but we still play deep

Losing little pieces that we never meant to keep

Why you got me late night, left on read

Talking to the ceiling, replaying what I said

Did I say too much, did I scare you off instead

Or you just like power, holding over my head

Why you got me late night, left on read

Refreshing that chat till my eyes turn red

Tryna play it cool but I’m cracked, I’m spread

All over this room where your name still rests (yeah)
