An upbeat yet poignant pop track about the modern struggle of letting go of an ex, with digital remnants like old texts and photos making closure difficult.
[Verse 1]
Scrolling through the gallery, a hundred smiling faces
Pictures from that summer, all those old familiar places
Our chat log still alive, from months and months ago
Laughing emojis, promises, a love I used to know
[Pre-Chorus]
And my finger hovers, ready to delete
But something stops me every single beat
It's like a digital ghost, living in this screen
Holding onto pieces of what used to be a dream
[Chorus]
I hear your laughter, see your texts appear
Echoes on my phone, whispering in my ear
Every notification, a phantom buzz for you
A broken record playing, what am I gonna do?
These pixels and these memories, a bittersweet embrace
I wish I could just wipe this digital space
[Verse 2]
Remember that late night call, the one where we stayed up 'til dawn?
I still have the voice note saved, even though you're long gone
Thought I was moving on, getting better every day
But then I unlock this screen, and it pulls me back to yesterday
[Pre-Chorus]
And my finger hovers, ready to delete
But something stops me every single beat
It's like a digital ghost, living in this screen
Holding onto pieces of what used to be a dream
[Chorus]
I hear your laughter, see your texts appear
Echoes on my phone, whispering in my ear
Every notification, a phantom buzz for you
A broken record playing, what am I gonna do?
These pixels and these memories, a bittersweet embrace
I wish I could just wipe this digital space
[Bridge]
Maybe it's time to let go, truly say goodbye
Delete the past, give my future a try
But it's hard when every swipe and every click
Brings back the memories, makes my heart feel sick
[Chorus]
I hear your laughter, see your texts appear
Echoes on my phone, whispering in my ear
Every notification, a phantom buzz for you
A broken record playing, what am I gonna do?
These pixels and these memories, a bittersweet embrace
I wish I could just wipe this digital space
[Outro]
Echoes on my phone, fading slow
Echoes on my phone, gotta let them go
(Gotta let them go, gotta let them go)
Just echoes on my phone
