Waiting Out Your Silence

1:12 a.m., my screen is blue I let it light up the

room I swear I heard your name in the fan But it’s

just my head again I keep a space on my pillow

Like you might slide in slow

But you don’t even try to call

And I still wait through it all

I’m making excuses for you Like that’s what love is supposed to

do

But the silence is getting loud And I’m tired of spinning out

You’re out of touch,

and I feel it I reach for you,

but you don’t meet it I wait on words you won’t send

Like I’m a habit you forget

So I let go,

just like that No more running in circles for scraps If you

wanted me, you’d show up

You’re out of touch,

I’m done with love like that

(ooh) out of touch

(ah) I’m letting go (ooh) out of touch (mm) that’s on you

I practiced not checking my phone

Like it’s a muscle I’m growing

You say you’re busy,

it’s fine

But it’s always your time,

not mine

I used to turn small into gold Make you the center of

my whole world

Now I see what you don’t do

Says more than what you do

I’m not your maybe,

not your later I’m not your late reply saver

If it’s this hard to feel you near Then I don’t want

you here

You’re out of touch,

and I know it I’m done pretending I don’t notice I gave

you space, I gave you trust You gave me nothing I could

hold So I let go,

just like that No more running in circles for scraps

If you wanted me,

you’d show up You’re out of touch,

I’m choosing love like that I

thought your distance meant depth But it was just you saving yourself

From saying what you really feel So I’ll stop writing you into

my thrill

If I’m alone, I’m still enough

You’re out of touch,

I release it I don’t need you to believe it I’m not

a maybe, not a test I’m the love I didn’t get So

I let go, just like that No more running in circles for

scraps If you wanted me,

you’d show up You’re out of touch,

I’m choosing me like that (ooh) I’m choosing me (mm) out of

touch
