Left On Read

Phone lit up

Thought it was you

Scroll back through

All that we do

Blue bubbles, grey

You typed, then erased

"Delivered" just stays

Right there in my face

You hit me with

"Maybe we done"

Couple short words

Blew out the sun

Read it twice

Still don’t make sense

How you kill love

In a couple of sentences

You broke my heart with a text

Three lines, no context

Left me on read, nothing left

Typing dots turned to silence and stress

You broke my heart with a text

Screen shotting what’s left

Now every buzz on my chest

Feels like you cutting deeper than the rest (yeah)

Used to send pics

Half-awake grin

Now it’s cold

Every login

I stare at your name

Hover my thumb

Write "I miss you"

Delete, go numb

You said "it’s not you"

Then blamed my past

Say you need space

You got it at last

Now I’m just stuck

In this small screen glow

Wish you’d at least

Look me in the soul

You broke my heart with a text

Three lines, no context

Left me on read, nothing left

Typing dots turned to silence and stress

You broke my heart with a text

Screen shotting what’s left

Now every buzz on my chest

Feels like you cutting deeper than the rest (oh)

All caps, all pain

You logged out, I stayed

Scroll back, same bed

Different us, same thread

Airplane mode on

But I still check

Your last goodnight

Pinned in my head (yeah)

You broke my heart with a text

Three lines, no context

Left me on read, nothing left

Typing dots turned to silence and stress

You broke my heart with a text

Screen shotting what’s left

Now every buzz on my chest

Feels like you cutting deeper than the rest (yeah, yeah)
