"Left on Read" (Verse 1) Late night glow, your name on my screen Falling in love through a touch on a key Every word, every laugh, felt so real Even though I never held you for real (Pre-Chorus) Typing... deleting... rewrote it again I swear I could hear you through texts that you send But love in a signal, it fades in the end And I let the static take me instead (Chorus) Left you on read, no final line No warning, no reason, no last goodbye I let the silence say what I never could Didn't want to break you, but I knew I would (Verse 2) Time zones apart, but you stayed up late Filling the space with the words that we made You called it forever, I wished it was true But echoes don’t hold you the way that I do (Pre-Chorus) Typing... deleting... rewrote it again I swear I could hear you through texts that you send But love in a signal, it fades in the end And I let the static take me instead (Chorus) Left you on read, no final line No warning, no reason, no last goodbye I let the silence say what I never could Didn't want to break you, but I knew I would (Bridge) You deserved a reason, you deserved a fight But I was a ghost before I said goodnight So now all that’s left is the light of my name On a screen that won’t ever glow the same (Outro) Maybe one day, you’ll forget my face The messages lost, just empty space But if you ever wonder why I let it die... Just know I loved you— but I couldn't say goodbye.

The song conveys a deep sense of longing and regret, exploring themes of unexpressed feelings and the complexities of modern relationships mediated through technology. It reflects on the pain of leaving someone without closure and the weight of unspoken words, capturing the bittersweet nature of love that remains unfulfilled.
This song could be used in scenarios such as reflecting on past relationships, accompanying moments of introspection, or as a soundtrack for scenes in movies or series that deal with heartbreak and the challenge of communicating emotions in the digital age.
Musically, the song likely employs standard country instrumentation, such as acoustic guitars, subtle percussion, and potentially a steel guitar to enhance emotional depth. Lyrically, it follows a classic verse-chorus structure with an introspective bridge, utilizing repetition for emotional impact and vivid imagery to paint the struggles of digital romance.
Staring out the window watching it snow Thinking about the past and the way things go I get a call saying they just towed in my brothers truck He had slid off the road just a little ways from home He’s ok but I didn’t want to tell you And my mind takes me back 2 years to my daddy in the driveway Telling me they found a mass on his brain and he’s headed into surgery He’d passed out a couple times , but we didn’t want to tell you Then I flash back to now you get so upset when things go wrong It happens every time But what if it’s the last time What if I never see his face again I’v made that mistake before thinking I’d have more time Just to wake up And see the clocks have all run down And there’s no way to turn them back So tell me How am I supposed to act Staring out at the snow I think about my son I haven’t seen him since the fight last Christmas Eve He said you left me like it was nothing and never looked back Blaming everybody but yourself And sorry aint ever going to be enough You say it every time My mind takes me back 20 years to me holding him in the driveway I hand him to the people I love most They say it’s just for a little while Then I flash back to now It wasn’t supposed to be the last time That I’d ever hold him as mine thought I’d have more time But the clocks have all run down And there’s no way to turn them back So how am I supposed to act Now that snows really coming down I try to figure out why I’m so afraid I go back 25 years to my mama crying saying I just want to die She was sick in her mind and I’d heard it all before I had problems of my own And I couldn’t stand it anymore I said do you want me to get you the gun And then I walked out the door I just walked out the door It was the last time That I ever saw her face I needed more time But the clocks had all run down and there’s no way to turn them back So how am I supposed to act I can still hear mama crying
oh baby gus dont make a fuss just sit here with us dont bother moe his smelly toes will linger to us dont lick my nose I've got to go just go with Anna she knows how to feed you I know she needs you just go to work with her
(Vers 1) Stig Willy, vår skipper så kjekk, På Kjell Senior, en flott båt. Vi seiler ut på det store hav, Og fisken, den fanger vi godt. (Chorus) Stig Willy, vår helt, Han loser oss trygt i havn. Med garn og med snøre, Får vi fisk til vår favn. (Vers 2) Vi kaster ut våre garn, Og venter i spenning og tro. Plutselig så rykker det til, Og fisken, den sitter jo der. (Chorus) Stig Willy, vår helt, Han loser oss trygt i havn. Med garn og med snøre, Får vi fisk til vår favn. (Bridge) Vi takker deg, Stig Willy, For at du er vår skipper så god. Uten deg hadde vi ikke klart, Å få all den fisken vi får. (Chorus) Stig Willy, vår helt, Han loser oss trygt i havn. Med garn og med snøre, Får vi fisk til vår favn. (Outro) Stig Willy, Stig Willy, Vår skipper så bra. Vi er så heldige, Som har deg på Kjell Senior.
(Verse 1) The lathe spins round, a rhythmic beat, Steel shavings fall, a silver sheet. With practiced hands, a welder's art, Creates strong bonds, a work of heart. The carpenter's skill, precise and true, Shapes wood and form, a vision new. From blueprint's lines to finished piece, Industrial arts, a life of peace. (Verse 2) The engine hums, a powerful sound, Mechanics work, where skills abound. Electricians' wires, a network bright, Connecting power, day and night. The mason's craft, with mortar strong, Builds structures tall, where they belong. In factories vast, or workshops small, Industrial arts, stand proud and tall.
[Verse] He wore his daddy's boots, too big by half a size, With dreams of open ranges and endless prairie skies. But the nights are getting longer in this old, lonesome town, He's chasing rusting fences, where his dreams have all broke down. [Verse 2] His horse is growing weary, his saddle's worn and thin, He looks across the skyline, where the sunsets should begin. But the stars seem dimmer lately, the wind's a mournful cry, And a young cowboy wonders if this trail is worth the ride. [Chorus] All he's ever known, is the dust that coats his soul, And a heart that's filled with longing, in a world that's grown so cold. He’s a rider lost in shadows, where the twilight calls his name, The young cowboy's lament—it's a lonely, endless game. [Bridge] He dreams of soft green meadows, a place to call his own, A love that waits at twilight, with a light that brightly shone. But the prairie is a harsh one, it never speaks of kind, Leaves a young cowboy searching, for a peace he'll never find. [Verse 3] His hands are rough and scarred, from the life that he has led, Every mark upon his skin, tells a story left unsaid. And though he fights the sorrow, that settles like the dew, He rides each day still hoping, that his dreams might yet come true. [Chorus] All he's ever known, is the dust that coats his soul, And a heart that's filled with longing, in a world that's grown so cold. He’s a rider lost in shadows, where the twilight calls his name, The young cowboy's lament—it's a lonely, endless game.
[Verse] Billy Joe was born to wander, never knew a home, Rode the rails and lived by chasing dreams of far-off tones, But every night in smoky bars, his heart began to stray, To a girl named Lady May, who stole his breath away. [Verse 2] Lady May, she churned the butter, kept the cabin warm, Dreamed of purple mountains, far beyond the farmer's barn, She saw the way he looked at her, with eyes that held the night, But she was torn ’tween safety here and love's uncertain flight. [Chorus] Billy Joe, he’d serenade with the lonesome songs he'd wrote, He sang of love and tribute in a voice that held her hope, Lady May swayed to the tune but never sang along, For she could feel the shadows cast once love had up and gone. [Bridge] Rain fell hard on leathered roads, he wandered all alone, The lullaby of Lady May played softly in his bones, She feared to chase the outlaw’s life, to risk her tender soul, But Billy Joe, he'd trade the world to make that girl his own. [Chorus] Billy Joe, he’d serenade with the lonesome songs he'd wrote, He sang of love and tribute in a voice that held her hope, Lady May swayed to the tune but never sang along, For she could feel the shadows cast once love had up and gone. [Verse 3] One cold night, the stars aligned and hearts began to speak, He took her hand and promised her the world beyond the creek, Lady May the farmer's girl, felt the pull of unknown skies, And with a kiss, she whispered soft, the truth behind her eyes.
[Verse] Roscoe's got a wonky tail, and a lopsided face, But the way he chases butterflies, brings a smile to this place. With his crooked little legs, and a bark that's out of tune, He's a sight for sore eyes in the Tennessee afternoon. [Chorus] Roscoe, you're a funny sight, but I love you just the same, In this small town, you're a legend, in your own peculiar way. You're weird, you're ugly, but you've got a heart of gold, And every day you remind me, of treasures yet untold. [Verse] Roscoe’s got a patchy coat, and eyes that seem to squint, But he’s the kind of loyal friend, that never asks for print. Running through the fields, with a spirit wild and free, Roscoe, you're the hero, of my story’s melody. [Chorus] Roscoe, you're a funny sight, but I love you just the same, In this small town, you're a legend, in your own peculiar way. You're weird, you're ugly, but you've got a heart of gold, And every day you remind me, of treasures yet untold. [Bridge] Now folks might laugh and point, but they just don't understand, You’ve got a charm that’s all your own, like winds upon this land. Roscoe, you’re a blessing, in a dog's peculiar way, And I wouldn’t trade your antics, for another any day. [Chorus] Roscoe, you're a funny sight, but I love you just the same, In this small town, you're a legend, in your own peculiar way. You're weird, you're ugly, but you've got a heart of gold, And every day you remind me, of treasures yet untold.
Verse 1 I’m trying to get over you But nothing works no matter what I do Tonight I’m hoping something gives But it’s like raising the dead and making it live Got my windows down cruisin in the wind Hoping I can clean up the mess I’m in Chorus That’s what they don’t tell you When you break a woman’s heart Your left trying to put back together What you tore a part But it don’t work like it use to There’s a scar because of you I would’ve done better if I knew What I know now I wish I could unbreak your heart somehow Verse 2 It ain’t like you didn’t tell me How you’d feel if I done you wrong But I didnt listen to what you said Now im putting the words into this song What I should of told you all along How much you mean to me Just wasn’t enough to not make you leave Cause my actions were louder And that’s what you see Chorus That’s what they don’t tell you When you break a woman’s heart Your left trying to put back together What you tore a part But it don’t work like it use to There’s a scar because of you I would’ve done better if I knew What I know now I wish I could unbreak your heart somehow Bridge I hope your doing better these days Found you a man who makes you wanna stay Chorus That’s what they don’t tell you When you break a woman’s heart Your left trying to put back together What you tore a part But it don’t work like it use to There’s a scar because of you I would’ve done better if I knew What I know now I wish I could unbreak your heart somehow

[Verse] There's a boy named Waki, from a land far away, In the Philippines he lives, where the palm trees sway, He stays up late with a gleam in his eye, For Hugo One's stream, he's the night owl guy. [Verse 2] With broken English, he types in the chat, Confusing the crowd, but they're loving all that, "Groove Street, fool!" he says with a grin, His earnest joy brings everyone in. [Chorus] Waki from Manila, watching the screen, Livin' in a world where dreams ain't unseen, Though his words are tangled, his heart's on display, Waki's weird chat brightens our day. [Verse 3] Grand Theft Auto's his virtual escape, Into the streets where memories take shape, From CJ's missions to the city's roar, He dreams of adventures from his own front door. [Verse 4] "Speedrun, Hugo! Do it real fast!" Waki's enthusiasm, it'll forever last, Though his phrases stumble, they always mean well, In every broken word, a story to tell. [Chorus] Waki from Manila, watching the screen, Livin' in a world where dreams ain't unseen, Though his words are tangled, his heart's on display, Waki's weird chat brightens our day.
