Delete Button
I changed the sheets, burned the notes
Blocked your name, but it still floats
Through every quiet second of my day
Your ghost don’t care what I erase
Tried new faces, took the calls
Laughed too loud in crowded halls
But your laugh still echoes in my chest
Like a song I never should’ve kept
I need a delete button for my mind
A way to wipe you from the hard drive
Control Z don’t work on pain
And memories don’t fade with rain
I’d press it fast, I’d press it twice
To take you out of every night
If forgetting had a key to press
I’d finally give my heart a rest
You’re in the coffee I don’t drink
The song I skip before I think
You live in all the little things
That shouldn’t hurt, but still sting
I thought time was supposed to fix
But all it’s done is play your tricks
Can’t reboot a love gone wrong
Can’t overwrite a soul you’re on
I need a delete button for my mind
A way to wipe you from the hard drive
Control Z don’t work on pain
And memories don’t fade with rain
I’d press it fast, I’d press it twice
To take you out of every night
If forgetting had a key to press
I’d finally give my heart a rest
If I could drag and drop you out
Empty the bin, no second doubts
No saved files, no final trace
Just peace inside this broken space
I need a delete button for the past
Something strong enough to make it last
No backups, no secret saves
Just clean light in the empty space
I’d press it now, I’d set it free
So I could be who I used to be
Until then, I’ll fake the best
But I’m dying for that heart reset
