I saw you the other day for the first time in what’s felt like years
You looked the same more or less but with different colour hair tucked behind your ears
You asked me how I was doing, I thought about it then lied
Only because I knew if I asked you first you'd have told me you were doing just fine
I wanted to tell you all about how since you left nothing's been the same
Life's been kinda monotone, average, grey
But instead an awkward silence followed
You said goodbye then took your leave
And I was left alone again, struggling to breathe
There's a thousand unread messages on your phone
I can't take another year feeling this low
We should stay in touch, can't let this go
And I could bottle my infatuation and not let it show
Remember when we used to say we'd be together for ever and ever
A pipe dream for all to see but we were happy in the dark
Over time the light started to brighten for you and you began to see
Us for what we really were instead of us for what we could be
Since you left half my time is spent going over that shit reassessing
The other half's spent trying to not to think about you
You know just pretending
I know I'm overthinking it, you'd probably laugh if you knew
But I mean, I can't help how badly I fell in love with you
There's a thousand unread messages on your phone
I can't take another year feeling this low
We should stay in touch, can't let this go
I could bottle my infatuation and not let it show
There's a thousand unread messages on your phone
I can't take another year feeling this low
We should stay in touch, can't let this go
And I could bottle my infatuation and not let it show
I shoulda told ya, I need ya
But I couldn't find the words to use and you had better things to do
I'm calling out to
You before the way without for a second chance at us
But I'm not so stupid to think that could happen I know I should just leave it be
And I can't wait till I feel better, until I feel relief
When those words you spoke when you broke it off stop playing on repeat
Losing face, lost my love, lost my reasons, losing touch
Funny how all the things I lost before you now don't seem like much
We could try again you know, I could promise you that I've changed
I can be sure that this time there's absolutely nothing that could get in our way
But I couldn't lie to you, we'd still end up the same way
Drifting apart in separate seas with only ourselves to blame
And I'll be left along again, struggling to breathe
Still infatuated with you
I left a thousand unread messages on your phone
I can't take another year feeling this low
We should stay in touch can't let this go
And I could bottle my infatuation and not let it show
