voicemail

(Intro – Instrumental)

(steady drums, looping guitar)

(Verse 1)

Another night, same number again

I don’t know why I still pretend

Your name lights up, then fades away

I let it ring, then press replay

(Pre-Chorus)

Your voice comes in before the tone

Feels like I’m never on my own

(Chorus)

I’m leaving a voicemail

Talking like you’re still mine

If you ever hear this

I hope it finds you right

I’m leaving a voicemail

Saying what I can’t say

If you don’t answer

I’ll hang up anyway

(Instrumental Break – 4 bars)

(drums + guitar only, no drop)

(Verse 2)

Fast heart, slow replies

You said “soon” like it was a lie

I scroll back just to feel something

Every word still hits the same

(Pre-Chorus)

Your voice plays back too clean

Like you’re still next to me

(Chorus)

I’m leaving a voicemail

Talking like you’re still mine

If you ever hear this

I hope it finds you right

I’m leaving a voicemail

Saying what I can’t say

If you don’t answer

I’ll hang up anyway

(Bridge – stripped, intimate)

If I stop calling, do I disappear?

Or do I live inside your ear?

(Final Chorus – slightly lifted, controlled)

I’m leaving a voicemail

Even if you don’t reply

Just need you to know

I tried

(Outro – Instrumental fade)

(guitar loop continues)
