VERSE 1

I just read your text, it’s nice to read about how you feel

How you long to be held, and you swear your love is real

I thought it was important to give you what you need

Then I realized not a single word was addressed to me

VERSE 2

I’m not even shocked, how could I not know something was wrong?

I forgot how it feels to be wanted, 'cause you haven't led me on

You don't even try, you spend your time locked away with an excuse

I’m left out and blamed, while he’s the one you choose

CHORUS

It’s a beautiful message, it’s a shame it’s not for me

It’s the first time you’ve been honest, and the last I’ll ever be

You’re longing for a touch that I’m not allowed to give

In a life you’re building for him, in a house where we still live

Yeah, I finally found the truth in a text that wasn't mine

You said everything to him that I've been waiting for a lifetime

BRIDGE

I’ve been staying up late trying to find where we went wrong

While you were already halfway gone

Every "I’m just tired" and every "not tonight"

Was just you keeping your secrets out of my sight

I was holding the line while you were cutting the wire

Setting us on cold, while you fed his fire

CHORUS

It’s a beautiful message, it’s a shame it’s not for me

It’s the first time you’ve been honest, and the last I’ll ever be

You’re longing for a touch that I’m not allowed to give

In a life you’re building for him, in a house where we still live

Yeah, I finally found the truth in a text that wasn't mine

You said everything to him that I've been waiting for a lifetime

OUTRO

(Quietly)

I just read your text...

It was beautiful, really.

It's just a shame...

It wasn't for me
