Late Night Echoes

You call me

So late it’s early

Same story

Same old “you miss me”

You hit my line, “you up?”

You only text at two

You talk like I’m the one

But you still play like you

Half in, half out

I’m tired of guessing you

My heart on read

Your love on residue

You only love me in the nighttime

Only feel me when the blinds shut tight

When the world fades out, you remember my name

But you forget me in the daylight

Say you need me, then you ghost by nine

I’m done living in your late night, late night

Echoes of your maybe-love

You spin your words like smoke

They hang and then they fade

You say you wanna grow

But you still stay the same

I gave you front row seats

You watched me fall apart

You say it’s complicated

I call it losing heart

You only love me in the nighttime

Only feel me when the blinds shut tight

When the world fades out, you remember my name

But you forget me in the daylight

Say you need me, then you ghost by nine

I’m done living in your late night, late night

Echoes of your maybe-love

I’m changing the locks

I’m cutting the ties

You don’t get a say

In how I shine

I’m raising the bar

I’m drawing the line

If you can’t show up

You don’t get my time (nah)

You only loved me in the nighttime

Only held me when the room felt small

Now I’m walking out, I remember my name

I won’t forget me in the daylight

Say you’re sorry, but I feel just fine

I’m done living in your late night, late night

Echoes fading as I rise
