[Intro – Soft static, maybe voicemail tones or raindrops]
[Faint female voice in background]
“Hey… I'm just checking in... I- uh.. never mind, I'm sorry.”
[Beat fades in slowly]
---
[Verse 1 – Rap, slow delivery, tired voice]
Tired eyes on a blue-lit screen
Midnight ticks but I don’t dream
Scrollin’ through names I helped heal
But not one checks how I feel
Sent a text last week, no reply
Left on read, guess that’s just life
I pick up every call they make
But my phone? Silent… 'til it’s too late
---
[Pre-Chorus – Softly sung]
I give and give till I fade
But who’s there when I break?
---
[Chorus – Sung, minimalistic melody over warm chords]
No one calls when I’m the one cryin’
No one stays when I say I’m tryin’
I’m there for them, rain or fall
But when I fall… no one calls
No one sees the cracks I hide
Guess they think I’m always fine
But even steel hearts start to stall
And still… no one calls
---
[Verse 2 – Rap, more emotional tone creeping in]
They say “You’re so strong,” like it’s a gift
But it’s a curse when you’re sinking quick
They vent to me, cry on my chest
Then ghost me when I need rest
Even my mirror don’t look back
Just a stranger wearin’ all black
It’s loud in my head, but quiet outside
A thousand thoughts—no replies
---
[Bridge – Whispered, over ambience and reverb]
I left my door unlocked
Phone on loud
Heart wide open
But no one came around…
---
[Chorus – Repeat with slightly more vocal layering/emotion]
No one calls when I’m the one cryin’
No one stays when I say I’m tryin’
I’m there for them, rain or fall
But when I fall… no one calls
No one sees the cracks I hide
Guess they think I’m always fine
But even steel hearts start to stall
And still… no one calls
---
[Outro – Piano and ambient fadeout, voicemail tone]
[Soft, but tired male voice in background]
“Hey… I saw you called for once.. look.. I just wanted to hear someone's voice right now… please call me back.”
