Keep Leaving Me on Read (LIVE Version)

(Verse 1) I text you just to feel like I still exist, You see it but you don’t say anything back. It’s stupid how a screen can hurt like this, I’m trying, but you keep falling off track. I tell myself it’s nothing, I’m overreacting, But silence hits louder than words ever did. I wait for your bubble, a small interaction, But all that I get is the same empty thing… (Pre-Chorus) And I hate that I’m hanging on To someone who’s already gone, But I still check my phone. (Chorus) You keep leaving me on read, Like I’m a thought you once had But don’t care for anymore. And it’s messing with my head, How you can vanish so fast Like I was never yours before. I know I should let you go instead, But I’m stuck on the things we never said… And you keep leaving— You keep leaving me on read. (Verse 2) I scroll up through our messages like proof That once you cared, even if it was small. Funny how the memories feel more true Than anything you give me now at all. I tell my friends I’m fine, it’s not a big deal, But they know every pause is a lie that I tell. It’s wild how someone can change how you feel Just by choosing to say nothing else. (Pre-Chorus) And I know I should move along, But somehow you still feel like home, Even when you’re cold. (Chorus) You keep leaving me on read, Like I’m a thought you once had But don’t care for anymore. And it’s messing with my head, How you can vanish so fast Like I was never yours before. I know I should let you go instead, But I’m stuck on the things we never said… And you keep leaving— You keep leaving me on read. (Bridge) Maybe I’m holding on To something that was never strong. Maybe you moved on first, And I’m the only one hurt. Maybe we were almost something, Or maybe I was just assuming… Either way, you’re fading. (Final Chorus – softer) You keep leaving me on read, And I keep reading between Lines that aren’t even there. I wish I could forget All the versions of you That I made up in my head. One day I’ll let go instead… But tonight it still hurts, ’Cause you keep leaving— You keep leaving me on read.
