Refresh the Page
She checks her phone 47 times before noon, hoping his name appears in notifications. The cursor blinks on his last message from three weeks ago—she's memorized every word, every punctuation mark. She knows she should delete the conversation thread, but instead she reads it again, her thumb trembling over the keyboard, composing responses she'll never send.
Lyrics
Verse 1
I'm hitting refresh like it's oxygen
Your name in my notifications, that's a win
Three weeks gone but your ghost is so close
I'm rewriting conversations I'll never post
Cursor blinking, fingers frozen, scared to delete
Your last words taste like honey and deceit
I know you're not coming back, but my phone don't know
So I'm checking, rechecking, can't let go
Chorus
Refresh the page, refresh the page
Maybe you changed your mind, maybe you'll come back today
Refresh the page, I'm stuck in the same place
Waiting for a message that ain't ever gonna come my way
Verse 2
I memorized your typing speed, how you use three dots
I see ghosts of you in places that I've forgot
Your silence is a language I speak fluent now
I'm addicted to the hoping, can't figure out how
To stop myself from scrolling through your story again
See who you with, who you with, pretend that it don't sting
I'm a prisoner of proximity, you're just one tap away
But the worst addiction is believing you might stay
Chorus
Refresh the page, refresh the page
Maybe you changed your mind, maybe you'll come back today
Refresh the page, I'm stuck in the same place
Waiting for a message that ain't ever gonna come my way
Bridge
I should block you, I should block you
But what if you reach out tomorrow?
I should move on, I should move on
But I'm too scared of the sorrow
So I refresh, and I refresh
Till my battery's running low
Till I forget that obsession ain't love
It's just fear of letting go
Outro
Refresh the page, refresh the page
Refresh the page, refresh the page
But you ain't never coming back
No, you ain't never coming back
