lyrics

(mm)

There is a setting that turns off the read receipts entirely
Two taps. I have found it nine times. I have never used it.
Because if I turn it off, I lose the information too
(the information)
And I would rather be hurt on schedule than not know

That is the whole trade (the whole trade)
Pain with data, or peace with none, pick one, no refunds

The setting
(the setting)
Two taps from a quieter life and I keep choosing this
The setting
I would rather watch it happen than wonder

My therapist would have a field day if I had a therapist
I have a notes app and a very consistent 3am
Which is cheaper and worse and entirely my own decision
(own decision)
Everyone builds their own small prison, mine just has notifications

I turned it off. Last Tuesday. Both directions.
Four days now. I do not know if anyone has read anything.
It is unbearable and it is better. Both. At once.
(BASS RETURNS)

The setting
(the setting)
Two taps from a quieter life and I keep choosing this
The setting
I would rather watch it happen than wonder

(four days...)
