I left the light on just in case
Kept my phone close just in case
Checked twice Three times
Nothing
I know you breathe somewhere in this city
I know you laugh like I don't exist
Funny how silence can be so loud
You didn't need to lie
You didn't need to promise
You just had to say
"I'm done"
But you left me on read
You left me waiting
You left me with a story that never got an ending
You left me on read
Like I was nothing
Like we were nothing
Maybe you typed a message Maybe you erased it
Maybe you didn't think twice
Or maybe you just ran
And I'll never know
That's the worst part
You didn't need to lie
You didn't need to promise
You just had to say
"I'm done"
But you left me on read
You left me waiting
You left me with a story that never got an ending
You left me on read
Like I was nothing
Like we were nothing
I still keep the light on sometimes
Just in case
I don't know why
You left me on read
You left me on read
