i still check my phone

[Verse 1] It’s 12:03, the house asleep, I swear I heard it buzz. I grab my phone like it’s a rope to pull me out of loss. No message there, just empty blue, and the echo of “I’m done with you.” [Chorus] I still check my phone at midnight, like you’ll miss me suddenly. Like your heart will change its mind and come back running to me. I still check my phone at midnight— it’s a habit I can’t break. I’m addicted to the maybe that you’ll say. [Verse 2] I type your name then backspace twice, like I can delete my need. I watch the snow on streetlight wires and count each frozen bead. They say “time heals,” but time just proves I’m still here missing you. [Chorus] I still check my phone at midnight, like you’ll miss me suddenly. Like your heart will change its mind and come back running to me. I still check my phone at midnight— it’s a habit I can’t break. I’m addicted to the maybe that you’ll say. [Bridge] If you ever think of me, please don’t do it softly. I can’t survive a whisper— either love me or leave me. [Final Chorus] I still check my phone at midnight… and it’s always quiet.
