You had me at a hundred, like a machine running fast
It happened just once, and after that, nothing came to pass
When you left me on read, I still wasn’t ready
When you left me on read, I still wasn’t—
Your way of being and the way you looked at me
A pair of brown eyes and a laugh with loud giggles, oh
When you left me on read, I still wasn’t ready (No)
Everything I had planned, in your plans I no longer exist
Time goes by, but you’re not here
No one touches me the way you do
I’ve written songs I won’t record
Your kisses burn slow, and that’s the truth (Uh-uh-uh)
I’m saying it clearly, I can accept it
I’m no longer afraid, I’ll lose once more
If I close my eyes, I can’t see a thing
Left feeling empty inside
When you left me on read, I still wasn’t ready
When you left me on read, I still wasn’t—
I have you in my thoughts, I miss you, I’m not lying
I didn’t expect the regret (Didn’t expect the regret)
I swear I regret it if I didn’t do the right thing
My intellect failed me, eh-eh-eh (Oh-oh-oh)
When you left me on read, I still wasn’t ready
When you left me on read, I still wasn’t
Everything I had planned, and in your plans, I no longer exist
When you left me on read
I still wasn’t, still wasn’t
When you left me on read, I still wasn’t
Everything I had planned, and in your plans, I no longer exist
Understand this, it wasn’t your fault, it was both of ours
It’s over now, it’s done, it’s all messed up
Uh-uh, it’s all messed up
Mmm-mmm, it’s messed up
Uh-uh, mmm-mmm
