LEFT ON READ

[Intro]
[Ad-libs – soft]
Yeah…
Why you gotta do me like that…

⸻

[Verse 1]
[Lead Male Vocal]
Saw your name light up my phone tonight
Thought maybe you’d finally reply

Three little dots, then they disappeared
Guess I was wrong this time

Every message I sent still there
Every word hanging in the air

[Band Harmonies]
In the air…

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
[Second Male Vocal]
Maybe you just needed space

[Lead Male Vocal]
Or maybe I’m just hard to replace

[Band Harmonies]
Hard to replace…

⸻

[Chorus]
[Lead Male Vocal]
You left me on read again
Like my heart’s just a message you opened

[Band Vocals]
(On read again!)

[Lead Male Vocal]
Said you cared but now it depends
On a silence I’m stuck here hoping

[Second Male Vocal]
All these words that I never said

[Band Vocals]
Never said…

[All Vocals]
Still sitting here left on read

⸻

[Verse 2]
[Lead Male Vocal]
Scrolling back through the things we said
Trying to find where it all went dead

[Second Male Vocal]
Every joke and every late night call
Now it feels like nothing at all

[Lead Male Vocal]
Thought we had something real back then

[Band Harmonies]
Back then…

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
[Second Male Vocal]
Maybe I should let you go

[Lead Male Vocal]
But every night I still hope

[Band Harmonies]
Still hope…

⸻

[Chorus]
[Lead Male Vocal]
You left me on read again
Like my heart’s just a message you opened

[Band Vocals]
(On read again!)

[Lead Male Vocal]
Said you cared but now it depends
On a silence I’m stuck here hoping

[Second Male Vocal]
All these words that I never said

[Band Vocals]
Never said…

[All Vocals]
Still sitting here left on read

⸻

[Bridge]
[Second Male Vocal]
Maybe I should stop waiting here

[Lead Male Vocal]
For a message that won’t appear

[Band Harmonies]
Won’t appear…

⸻

[Final Chorus]
[Lead Male Vocal]
You left me on read again
Guess my heart was a message you opened

[Band Vocals]
(On read again!)

[Second Male Vocal]
Thought we’d last but now it depends
On a silence that keeps me broken

[All Vocals]
All the words that I never said
Still sitting here left on read

⸻

[Outro]
[Band Harmonies]
Left on read…
Left on read…

[Ad-libs]
Yeah…
