Dana... it's me. You don't have to call back. I kept typing and deleting, so I figured I'd just say it out loud. I was wrong. That's the whole message. I was wrong. [Verse] Three drafts sitting in my phone tonight Not one of them said it right Your side of the bed is still made I'm the same mess I always make [Chorus] Dana, I won't dress it up as a mistake (a mistake) I knew, and I did it anyway You don't have to answer, leave me on read (leave me on read) I just couldn't let silence be the last thing I said [Verse] You asked me for honest, I gave you fine The dog still waits by the door for a sign I'm not here to talk my way out I'm here to say it — I let you down [Chorus] Dana, I won't dress it up as a mistake (a mistake) I knew, and I did it anyway You don't have to answer, leave me on read (leave me on read) I just couldn't let silence be the last thing I said [Bridge] (mmm, Dana) I won't promise you I've changed Promises are just more noise — so I'll go quiet, and let it show [Final Chorus] Dana, I won't dress it up as a mistake (a mistake) I knew, and I did it anyway You don't have to answer — I'll still be here (I'll still be here) I just couldn't let silence be the last thing I said [Outro] (mmm, Dana) That's the whole message
