"Hey, uh… I know it's late

Just… call me when you get this, alright?"

Seen at 2:17

Blue ticks like a guillotine

Screen glow on my half-closed eyes

Ceiling fan tracing lazy lines

I type out "you awake?" then erase

Scroll back through the thread like a case

Every heart, every "lol" that we sent

Trying to track where your patience went

If you're still holding the phone

Why am I here on my own

Replaying every word I said

Like a crime scene in my head (Yeah)

Seen at 2:17, but you never hit send

Got me counting every second like it’s never gonna end

Refresh, reset, still I'm staring at the screen

Did I say too much, or are you somewhere in between?

Seen at 2:17, now my heart’s on read

All the what-ifs running laps inside my bed

If you changed your mind, you don’t gotta explain

But leave me more than just my name

Seen at 2:17

That last "goodnight" had a question mark

You left it hanging like a framed remark

Did I laugh too loud at your pain

Turn your trust into a stain

Now the shadows crawl up the wall

Your icon fades, you don't call

I swear I hear your typing ghosts

Three dots rising, then they choke

Do you put me down in a drawer

Like a book you don’t read anymore

Or are you lying there the same

Tracing letters in my name (Oh)

Seen at 2:17, but you never hit send

Got me counting every second like it’s never gonna end

Refresh, reset, still I'm staring at the screen

Did I say too much, or are you somewhere in between?

Seen at 2:17, now my heart’s on read

All the what-ifs running laps inside my bed

If you changed your mind, you don’t gotta explain

But leave me more than just my name

Seen at 2:17

Yeah

Whole life in a chat bubble

We were riding through the cracks, now it’s black rubble

You were "always here," that was last summer

Now it's silence every time that the past stutters

I’m refreshing like a habit I can't kill

Treat your absence like a message I can’t fill

Scroll, scroll, every joke, every fight

Trying to pinpoint the moment I stopped feeling right

You said, "Talk to me, I can take it"

Now I talk in drafts, you don't break it

Just that timestamp burned in my brain

Like the last frame before it all went vague

If goodbye is just a pause you extend

Why you let my little bubble hit the end?

I’m awake, you’re a ghost in the feed

I’m still here, typing love you in a note I’ll never send

Seen at 2:17, but you never hit send

Got me counting every second like it’s never gonna end

Refresh, reset, still I'm staring at the screen

Did I say too much, or are you somewhere in between?

Seen at 2:17, now my heart’s on read

All the what-ifs running laps inside my bed

If you changed your mind, you don’t gotta explain

But leave me more than just my name

Seen at 2:17

If you wake up and you see

All the words you left in me

You can say it’s done, just say it clean

Don’t leave me frozen at 2:17 (Mmm)
