Lyrics

[Verse 1]
           G
I found my old phone today
                    D
In a box that I had hidden away
                    Cadd9
Nostalgia tryin' to lead me astray
                        G     D
Maybe I'll unwrite some wrongs
              G
I charged the battery again
                       D
Combinations 'cause my passcode had changed
                    Cadd9
Opened up and saw familiar names
                          G    D
Now I wonder where they've gone
                      Em
Conversations with my dead friends

[Chorus]
                     Cadd9
Messages from all my exes
                            G
I kinda think that this was best left
                       D
In the past where it belongs
                       Em
I feel an overwhelming sadness
                            Cadd9
Of all the friends I do not have left
                         G
Seeing how my family has fractured
                      D
Growin' up and movin' on

[Verse 2]
           G
I found my old phone today
                       D
Arguments that I tried to keep at bay
The ones who loved me,
       Cadd9
I just pushed them away
                                      G  D
Couldn't tell the difference from the leeches
               G
My closed hand still holds some mates
But if I'm open,
        D
it gets smaller day by day
                      Cadd9
I can't tell if it is pleasure or pain
                         G D
Trying to keep within my remit
                      Em
Conversations with my dead friends

[Chorus]
                     Cadd9
Messages from all my exes
                            G
I kinda think that this was best left
                       D
In the past where it belongs
                       Em
I feel an overwhelming sadness
                            Cadd9
Of all the friends I do not have left
                         G
Seeing how my family has fractured
                      D
Growin' up and movin' on

[Verse 3]
           G
I found my old phone today
                     D
So full of love, yet so full of hate
                           Cadd9
I put it back inside there from whence it came
                              G   D
Nothing good will come from regretting
                      Em
Conversations with my dead friends

[Chorus]
                     Cadd9
Messages from all my exes

                             D
There in the past where it belongs
                       Em
I feel an overwhelming sadness
                            Cadd9
Of all the friends I do not have left
                         G
Seeing how my family has fractured
                      D
Growin' up and movin' on
