Last Unread Message

[Verse 1]

You said we’d grow old

Arguing over the same show

Splitting fries

Counting new lines on our faces

Now the couch has your shape

Burned into one side of the leather

I still talk

Like you might answer from the kitchen

[Chorus]

All these little

Silly memories

Tripping me up in the daylight

You were my favorite everyday scene

Fading like chalk in a late tide

They say you’re slowly slipping

Names and dates like falling leaves

I feel this throbbing in my chest

Like your last unread message to me

[Verse 2]

Found your jacket in June

Ticket stubs in the torn sleeve

You laughed so hard

We missed the whole first half

Your mug on the top shelf

Lipstick stain that the soap missed

I keep it there

Like some small

Stubborn proof

[Chorus]

All these little

Silly memories

Tripping me up in the daylight

You were my favorite everyday scene

Fading like chalk in a late tide

They say you’re slowly slipping

Faces blur and streets mislead

I feel this throbbing in my chest

Like your last unread message to me

[Bridge]

If I read it out loud

Would it anchor you here?

If I write you every day

Will the words keep you near? (oh)

[Chorus]

All these little

Silly memories

Piling like mail by the bedside

You were my favorite everyday scene

Drifting just out of the headlight

They say you’re slowly slipping

But in my head you never leave

I feel this throbbing in my chest

Like your last unread message to me

Like your last unread message to me
