After I Block Your Number

[Verse 1]
Cold coffee
Same blue mug we bought in June
Your jacket
Still hanging like you’ll walk in soon
I scroll through
Every fight
Every almost-cry
Then slowly
Start deleting our whole timeline

[Pre-Chorus]
You’re not a ghost in this apartment
You’re just a box by the door
I’m learning love is not a warning
It’s choosing who you’re hurting for

[Chorus]
I’m moving on after I block your number
Letting your echo fade out of my phone
Every goodbye makes the silence softer
I’m not the same girl begging you come home
You were the storm
Now I’m the thunder
Finding my power in walking alone
I’m moving on after I block your number
Click... and you’re gone

[Verse 2]
New haircut
Chopped off the part you used to hold
Red lipstick
A color you said was “too bold”
My friends say
They’ve never heard me laugh this loud
In mirrors
I’m finally standing for myself now

[Pre-Chorus]
Your name lights up then it flickers
Old habits asking for more
I feel the pull in my fingers
Then let it ring to the floor

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
This isn’t hate
It’s healing
This isn’t war
It’s peace
You don’t get front row seating
To who I’m about to be
[crescendo]
I’ll save my love for someone honest
Someone who shows up when it’s hard
Left all your empty little promises
Back in that blocked-out part of my heart
