Verse 1 (Spoken, fast, UK cadence — like texts being read)
“Where are you?” — you sent at half past two,
“Wish you were here” — I didn’t know what to do.
“Do you still love me?” — sat there starin’ at the screen,
Words on a phone but they cut me clean.
“We need to talk” — yeah, I’ve heard that before,
Every little message like a knock at the door.
Scrolling through the past, it’s a war in my hand,
Every unread word I can’t understand.
Pre-Chorus (Soft build)
These messages echo, they tear me apart,
But one thing I know, I can’t hide my heart.
Chorus (Soaring, melodic, emotional)
🎶 I’m drowning in your messages, they’re tearing me down,
Every word’s a bullet, every line’s a sound.
But if love is still written somewhere in your phone,
Send me just one text that says I’m not alone. 🎶
Verse 2 (Spoken fast, like texts)
“It’s not you, it’s me” — classic line you dropped,
“Don’t call tonight” — and the typing stopped.
“We were good, but maybe not meant to last,”
And I’m stuck here replayin’ the digital past.
“Do you miss me?” — I swear I still do,
But my inbox is filled with the ghost of you.
Every dot-dot-dot that never became a word,
Every silent screen is the loudest I’ve heard.
Pre-Chorus (Soft build)
These messages linger, they cut to the bone,
But love in the silence still makes me hope.
Chorus (Soaring, melodic, emotional)
🎶 I’m drowning in your messages, they’re tearing me down,
Every word’s a bullet, every line’s a sound.
But if love is still written somewhere in your phone,
Send me just one text that says I’m not alone. 🎶
Bridge (Half-spoken, half-sung)
I don’t need the poetry, I don’t need the lies,
Just tell me you’re here, just one reply.
(soft hums underneath — “mmm… ohhh”)
Final Chorus (Big soaring close)
🎶 I’m drowning in your messages, they’re tearing me down,
Every word’s a bullet, every line’s a sound.
But if love is still written somewhere in your phone,
Send me just one text that says I’m not alone.
Send me just one text that says I’m not… alone. 🎶
