[Verse 1]
Blue dots
Sitting on your name
Screenshot
Just to feel the shame
Typed out
"do you ever think of me?"
Backspaced
’til it’s just anxiety
[Pre-Chorus]
My thumb hovers on that last "send"
You say "we're cool" while we just pretend
I keep refreshing like it'll fix the end
It never ends
[Chorus]
Left unread at 1:43 AM
Staring at the glow like it’s my best friend
Scroll back through the fight
Every word
Every "fine"
Pull it all apart just to bleed again
You’re a ghost in a box with a stupid name
I keep typing like that changes anything
If silence is an answer
Guess this is how it ends
Left unread at 1:43 AM (again)
[Verse 2]
Last seen
Feels like last rites
Your green dot
Cuts me like a knife
You’re online
Laughing in some group chat
I’m offline
Arguing with all our past
[Pre-Chorus]
Our three-year thread like a car crash film
I press play just to torture myself again
Every "love u" buried under what-ifs
I can’t resist
[Chorus]
Left unread at 1:43 AM
Staring at the glow like it’s my best friend
Scroll back through the fight
Every word
Every "fine"
Pull it all apart just to bleed again
You’re a ghost in a box with a stupid name
I keep typing like that changes anything
If silence is an answer
Guess this is how it ends
Left unread at 1:43 AM (again)
[Bridge]
[Half-time
Drums drop
Vocal pushed up]
Do you even feel it?
Tremor in your hands when my name lights up? (hey!)
Or do you swipe it away
Like dust on your screen
Like I was never enough
I rehearse what I’ll say when you finally call
But the ring never comes
Just the quiet on the wall
So I turn off my phone
Turn it on again
Chasing signal
Chasing you
Chasing nothing
[Chorus]
Left unread at 1:43 AM
Making up your words in my own head
If you wanted me gone
You could just have said
Instead you drew the line with three grey checks
You’re a ghost in a box with a stupid name
I keep typing like that changes anything
If silence is an answer
Guess this is how it ends
Left unread at 1:43 AM
[Outro]
Screen fades
But my heart stays loud
I’ll get over you
Just not right now
Left unread
Left on hold
But I swear one day
I won’t check my phone (oh yeah)
