I saw your back when you walked away from me
The last time that I saw you on the field
They all say, it’ll fade eventually,
But I mean, eventually, we’ll all be dead.

I don’t know if you’ll miss me at all
if you’ll miss me at all

I wanna reach out to you
When I’m with you, I feel less alone
But when I reach out to you
Now all I get is the dial tone
I wanna feel your presence
I wanna hear you on the phone
But when I reach out to you
Now all I get is the dial tone

I watch your games, and you’re looking so happy
And you text me, when you get a moment free
I don’t feel stable, when you’re not here for me
And I don’t feel fear for me, I just feel pity.

But I don’t know if you miss me at all
if you miss me at all

I wanna reach out to you
When I’m with you, I feel less alone
But when I reach out to you
Now all I get is the dial tone
I need you to keep me steady
I need you to heal my broken bones
But when I reach out to you
Now all I get is the dial tone
I know that you’re keeping busy
You’re doing well, and I don’t mean to moan
I just wanna talk, Jess
But all I get is the dial tone
Sometimes I need to stay grounded
I need to hear you on the phone
But I guess you left it on silent
Cause all I get is the dial tone
