Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You texted late again
My phone lit up blue
Said you on the way
But you never came through
I kept your spot warm
Plate gone cold on the side
Said you needed time
But you told me a lie
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I’m reading your tone
Like a note in the dark
Every little excuse
Got a hole in my heart
You come and you go
Like you own my mind
I was standing right there
You still crossed that line
[Chorus]
Late check, late check
You always move too late
Late check, late check
Now I can’t wait
Say my name right
Don’t keep me on pause
Late check, late check
You know what that costs
[Verse 2]
I saw you out there
With that same old grin
Acting like I’m cool
Like I don’t remember when
You want all the love
But you hate the truth
Took a little too much
Now it’s coming back to you
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I’m reading your tone
Like a note in the dark
Every little excuse
Got a hole in my heart
You come and you go
Like you own my mind
I was standing right there
You still crossed that line
[Chorus]
Late check, late check
You always move too late
Late check, late check
Now I can’t wait
Say my name right
Don’t keep me on pause
Late check, late check
You know what that costs
[Bridge]
I wanted forever
You wanted escape
I held it together
You let it decay
No more half-truths
No more maybe someday
If you want my time
Better show up today
[Chorus]
Late check, late check
You always move too late
Late check, late check
Now I can’t wait
Say my name right
Don’t keep me on pause
Late check, late check
You know what that costs
