INTRO

Out here… signal comes and goes…

VERSE 1

Sunburnt neck
Fence line job
Wire pulled tight
Won’t stop

Get one bar
By that tree
That’s the spot
They find me

She don’t know
How this goes
No signal
Miles of road

Sends her words
Like I’m close—
I’m out here
On my own

PRE-CHORUS

Phone lights up
Her name glows
Says she misses me
Don’t know

Start to type—
Bars drop dead
Two blue ticks…
That’s all she read

CHORUS 1

Two blue ticks
Two blue ticks

Two blue ticks
On my screen
Two blue ticks
Where she shouldn’t be

Two blue ticks
I can’t reach
Two blue ticks
Runnin’ from me

Signal fades
Comes and goes
Hearts don’t wait
Fields and roads

Chasin’ both—
Got nothin’ left
Two blue ticks
In my chest

POST-CHORUS TAG

Two blue ticks…
That’s all I got
That’s all I got
Two blue ticks
That’s all I got...

VERSE 2

Gate swung wide
She broke loose
Dust kicked up
No excuse

Boots half tied
I took off
Cussin’ loud
Breath cut off

Then I saw
Clear as day
Swingin’ there
While she ran

Two blue marks
Under that tail—
I laughed once…
Then it sank

CHORUS 2

Two blue ticks
Two blue ticks

Two blue ticks
On my screen
Two blue ticks
Where she shouldn’t be

Two blue ticks
I can’t reach
Two blue ticks
Runnin’ from me

Signal fades
Comes and goes
Hearts don’t wait
Fields and roads

Chasin’ both—
Got nothin’ left
Two blue ticks
In my chest

POST-CHORUS TAG

Two blue ticks…
That’s all I got
That’s all I got
Two blue ticks
That’s all I got...

VERSE 3

She hit hills
I went hard
Heart beat fast
Breath got scarred

Those two ticks
Swingin’ free—
Like they knew
What she did to me

Screen I couldn’t
Ever reach
“She saw you…”
Outta reach

No reply
No sound
Ghosts just hangin’
All around

Dust and wire
Burnin’ lungs
Couldn’t catch it
Couldn’t run

Couldn’t rope it
Couldn’t fix—
Damn those two
Blue ticks

BRIDGE

Days go by
Back in range
Her reply
Ain’t the same

“You don’t care”
That’s what she said—
If she knew
Where I’d been

Out here love
Don’t load on time
Silence hits
Like a crime
... SIGNAL

CHORUS

Two blue ticks
Two blue ticks

Two blue ticks
On my screen
Two blue ticks
In that scene

Two blue ticks
Read and run
Two blue ticks
Leave me undone

Signal fades
Comes and goes
Hearts don’t wait
Fields and roads

Chasin’ both—
Got nothin’ left
Two blue ticks
In my chest

FINAL TAG

Two blue ticks…
That’s all I got
That’s all I got
Two blue ticks

OUTRO

Out here… signal comes and goes…
