...Wait

No, not you. Not again

Just another ad... why is it never you?

Screen lights up, my heart stops beat

Checked it in a second, but it’s just a cheat

Not your name, not your face

How many times have I looked today?

Two hundred times? Yeah, I’m sick, I know

But I can’t stop the itch, I can’t let it go

Read receipts from three hours ago

One word is all it takes, didn't you know?

A "Yeah," an "Okay," anything will do

Just give me a sign that I’m still with you

One minute, five minutes, an hour crawls by

Time is warping under a digital sky

I’m staring at the clock until the numbers bleed

While that blue checkmark does the dirty deed

(Are you even alive?)

You left me on read, you left me on read

Why, why, why? It’s all in my head

Left on read, left on read

Did I do something wrong? Did I say what I said?

Are you mad? Are you bored? Are you done with me?

I’m breaking apart for the whole world to see

It’s so easy to ruin me with a ghost of a "Seen" ♡

I’ve simulated a hundred reasons why

"He’s just busy," "He’s a tired guy"

But I see your green light, a glowing dot

You’re online right now, in a different spot

Talking to who? Not me, that’s for sure

I’m taking screenshots, looking for a cure

I’m pathetic, I’m obsessive, I know the drill

But the silence is a void I can't seem to fill

Wanna see my drafts? The things I’ll never send:

"Are you mad?" (Backspace)

"Did something happen?" (Backspace)

"Is it my fault?" (Backspace)

"I'm sorry." (Backspace)

I'm too scared to send, too scared to lose

So I’ll just sit here and wait for the news

3 AM, still wide awake

Waiting for a buzz for my own heart’s sake

"Left on read" is a slow-motion kill

No blood on the floor, but I’m losing the will

It’s just a message, it’s just a phone

But without your reply, I’m dying alone

(You’re my everything... you know?)

(Ding!)

...!

...Is it you?

...No. Not you

Goodnight... I’ll be here tomorrow

Waiting for the blue ghost

(You’ll reply eventually... right?)
