Speaker A
I wrote I miss you [music] 17 times, and I'm still right here. She said, "Just tell me what you want." I said, "I don't know yet." That was the last thing either one of us had ever said, and now I got this
Speaker A
phone. [music] In both [singing] hands like it's going to save itself if I just hold it long enough, but it never did.
Speaker A
Every morning since I wake [music] up, opening up the thread, read the last two lines like maybe something in it has changed, but [music] it's the same words sitting there, the same unfinished page.
Speaker A
I backspace every sentence 'cause the truth [music] is like a cage. Now it feels like standing at a door, walking away. I know exactly what to say. That's what makes it worse. I've rehearsed it [music] in the shower. I've rehearsed it
Speaker A
in the car. I put my thumb on hit the button [singing] and I don't know what I or who I am without the version of me that she remembered. A screen [music] still [singing] bright at 3:00 a.m. I
Speaker A
watched you type then stop again. Lip bold [music] just staring [singing] at our phones, afraid of words we've always known. Still [music] typing, still deleting every line. Your name is like a dark cloud. I'm [music] still hoping you'll go first so I don't have to
Speaker A
try. Still typing, still deleting every time we almost said it all. Our goodnights [music] look close, don't count when you're this far behind.
Speaker A
[music] Still typing, still deleting every line. Your name is [music] like a dark cloud.
Speaker A
[music] Four years ago, she told me that I never say enough. I told [singing] her that I say too much. She said no, not the real stuff. [music] And she was right. I talked for hours, never once got deep.
Speaker A
I'd crack a joke before the moment got too hard to keep. Now every [music] night I write a paragraph I'll never send about how I was wrong and how I wish we start again. I save them in my
Speaker A
drafts. I got a hundred sitting there like letters [music] to a person who moved out and left the chair. She texts me on my birthday, just said, "Hope you good." I spent four [music] hours typing back, said, "Don't worry, you too." And
Speaker A
that's the thing. I had a whole speech ready, holding script, but I was sending on two words 'cause I'm terrified of being honest. But a quiet after so the rare I sent, and [music] I still think about you
Speaker A
waiting for the read. Receipt to show the nothing, just the delivered, and the death conversation that I started that I wish I kept in my head.
Speaker A
The screen still [singing] bright as 3:00 a.m. I watched you type and stop again. We're both just staring at our [singing] phones, afraid of words we've always known. Still typing [music], still deleting every line. Your name is like a drug I can't fight. Still hoping
Speaker A
you'll go first so I don't have to shine. [music] Still typing, still deleting every time we almost said it all tonight. But [music] close don't count when you're this far behind.
Speaker A
[music] Still typing, still deleting every [singing] line. Your name is like a drug I can't fight.
Speaker A
[music] I wrote I love [singing] you, I'm sorry. Then cleared it like I always do.
Speaker A
One day I'll run out of chances to say [singing] what we've already knew. [music] Still [music] typing, still deleting every line. Your name is like a drug I can't [music] fight. Still hoping you'll go first so I don't have to shine.
Speaker A
Still [music] typing, still deleting time we almost say it. All I want to do is [music] apologize. But close don't count when you're this far behind.
Speaker A
[music] Still typing, still deleting every line. Your name is [singing] like a dark wall. [music]
