Left On Read

[intro]
Rain on the window again tonight
Phone in my hand but it don't light
Funny how someone can mean so much
Then disappear without saying much

[Verse 1]
I was waiting on your call but the night got cold
Rain on the window, memories I can't hold
You said forever like you really meant it
Now I'm reading old messages, wondering where we ended

I don't wanna chase, I don't wanna beg
But I still see your name every time I check
You moved on quick, I stayed in my head
Funny how the person I loved left me on read

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know, I know
Things don't always go the way we planned
You let go, I held on
Now I'm trying to understand
Was it me, was it us
Was there something I should've said?
Now there's nothing left between us
But a screen and a message left unread

[Chorus]
Left on read while the rain falls down
You were my home, now I'm lost in this town
I hear your voice when the whole world's quiet
Tell myself I'm fine but my heart don't buy it

Left on read, yeah, I know what it means
Some people leave but they stay in your dreams
I won't call, I won't knock on your door
If you wanted me, you would've wanted me more

[Verse 2]
I remember late nights, talking till two
You telling me things that nobody knew
We had our little world, we had our own way
Now I walk past those places and look the other way

Your picture's gone but the feeling ain't
I smile outside but inside I'm drained
Everybody tells me that time will heal
Nobody tells you how slow it feels

Maybe tomorrow I'll wake up alright
Maybe your name won't cross my mind
Maybe the rain won't remind me of you
Maybe I'll finally believe we're through

[Bridge]
But tonight I'm somewhere between goodbye and regret
Still asking myself why I gave you my best
You gave me silence, I gave you my heart
Guess some stories end before they really start

[Final Chorus]
Left on read while the rain falls down
You were my home, now I'm finding my ground
I hear your voice but it don't feel the same
I'm learning to let go without calling your name

Left on read, yeah, I know what it means
Some people leave but they stay in your dreams
I won't call, I won't knock on your door
If you wanted me, you would've wanted me more

[Outro]
So I'll let that message sit there tonight
No more waiting for the screen to light
If tomorrow comes and you still don't reply
I'll take that silence as my goodbye

No hard feelings
No words left to say
You chose your road
I'll find my way

Left on read...
But I'm not waiting anymore
Rain keeps falling
I'm walking home
