[Intro]
Yeah
Mm
Late again
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Phone face down on the dresser
Name still burned in the glass
Blue ticks staring like pressure
You said "call back" and I passed
Ash on the hoodie from last week
Same stain, same old chair
All of these messages half-read
All of these feelings I spare
Scrolling your pictures at 3 a.m.
You in that dress, I remember that day
I type a paragraph, breathe again
Delete it all, throw the courage away
[Chorus]
It's always after the missed call
I feel it the most (yeah)
When your name on the screen
But the room so cold (so cold)
I keep running from the ring
Like I don't want hope (nah)
Then I sit here in the silence
Wishing I had picked up that phone
After the missed call
After the missed call (oh)
Say I'm better on my own
But I know that's false
After the missed call
That's when my guard falls
Talking to the ceiling
Like it’s you, not these walls
[Verse 2]
You said "you change when you hurting"
I said "I'm fine" and I lied
Turn every truth into curtains
So no one sees what's inside
Friends say "pull up, we outside"
I let it ring, let it ring
Can't fake a laugh for an hour
When I can't even fake how I think
I wear your sweater in August
Just to see if it still smell like you
I keep that playlist untouched
Every song feel like it's brand new
[Chorus]
It's always after the missed call
I feel it the most (yeah)
When your name on the screen
But the room so cold
I keep running from the ring
Like I don't want hope
Then I sit here in the silence
Wishing I had picked up that phone
After the missed call
After the missed call (yeah)
Taking shots at my reflection
Like it's all my fault
After the missed call
That's when my guard falls
If you ever try again
I might answer through the scars (answer through the scars)
