The Gap in the Signal

[Intro]
[Verse]
Three years since the screen went black.
I’m never getting those minutes back.
I'm staring at the blue light.
I shouldn't have left that night.
Your name is a quiet ghost.
The one that I hurt the most.
I'm stuck on a one-way track.
With everything I can't take back.
[Pre-Chorus]
My thumb is shaking on the glass.
Watching all the seasons pass.
I’m staring at the play sign.
Wishing I could fix the timeline.
[Chorus]
I’m sorry for the silence I left.
A friendship stolen by a subtle theft.
I ran when the air got tight.
Lost my way in the middle of light.
I owe you words I can’t find.
Left you waiting three years behind.
[Verse]
Nineteen and the room was spinning.
Thought that I was finally winning.
Then the panic hit my chest.
I failed the only real test.
I heard you calling out my name.
But I just walked out of the frame.
I left the notes in a row.
Too scared to let the feelings show.
[Bridge]
Now I’m twenty-two and still small.
Too afraid to even make the call.
The piano echoes in the hall.
Watching every single shadow crawl.
I'm waiting for the sky to fall.
Staring at the writing on the wall.
[Verse]
The timestamp says October four.
I don't recognize myself no more.
Your voice is trapped in digital dust.
Broken pieces of a simple trust.
I scroll back to the very start.
Feeling every crack inside my heart.
The sub-bass hits a lonely note.
Apologies stuck inside my throat.
[Chorus]
I’m sorry for the silence I left.
A friendship stolen by a subtle theft.
I ran when the air got tight.
Lost my way in the middle of light.
I owe you words I can’t find.
Left you waiting three years behind.
[Outro]
