Soft Delete

[Verse 1]

You’re still in my phone

January snow on your coat

Your name at the top

Like something I forgot to throw out

I scroll too slow

Little pieces of a life we wrote

Kitchen light

Your crooked smile

All the things that hurt and help me

[Chorus]

So I start the soft delete

One by one

Let go of us

Every picture feels like pulling teeth

But I’m tired of bleeding from this trust

You fade from my small blue screen

But you’re louder in my chest tonight

I’m deleting all our memories

Just to see if I can sleep alright

[Verse 2]

There’s that blurry one

You’re laughing

I’m out of frame

I remember how it felt

To be the center of that same joke

Friends said keep a few

Like some museum of what we were

But I don’t wanna walk those halls

Every time I reach for my phone

[Chorus]

So I start the soft delete

One by one

Let go of us

Every picture feels like pulling teeth

But I’m tired of bleeding from this trust

You fade from my small blue screen

But you’re louder in my chest tonight

I’m deleting all our memories

Just to see if I can sleep alright
