Voicemail Never Sent · 没寄出的语音留言

[Verse 1]

Phone face down on the nightstand, screen light through the case

Forty-seven drafts of something I was never gonna place

Two a.m. I hit record and talked until the battery died

Then I listened back at sunrise and I let it sit inside

[Pre-Chorus]

My thumb hovering over send like a person on a ledge

Everybody says just tell them — everybody means they said

[Chorus]

Forty-seven voicemails and I never pressed send

Three minutes twelve seconds of things I'll never say

I recorded it to let it go, but letting go means end

Send means you might, and might is worse than no

(Might is worse than no)

[Verse 2]

There's one from March I kept because I laughed while I was talking

There's one I made just breathing, no words, only the sound

There's one where I said your name out loud and then I stopped recording

That's the one that's three minutes, that's the one that got me down

[Pre-Chorus]

My thumb hovering over send like a person on a ledge

I could delete it in a second — I've been trying since

[Chorus]

Forty-seven voicemails and I never pressed send

Three minutes twelve seconds of things I'll never say

I recorded it to let it go, but letting go means end

Send means you might, and might is worse than no

[Bridge]

I never pressed send

Because send means you might

And might is a door I can't close again

I never pressed send

So it's still mine

Forty-seven things that are still mine

(I never pressed send)

[Final Chorus]

Forty-seven voicemails and I'm keeping every one

Three minutes twelve seconds, I'll never let it run

I recorded it to let it go — but I'm not done

Send means you might, and might is worse than no

(Worse than no, worse than no)

[Outro]

I never pressed send
