[Verse 1]
I found my old phone today
In a box that I had hidden away
Nostalgia trying to lead me astray
Maybe I'll unwrite some wrongs
I charged the battery again
Combinations 'cause my passcode had changed
Opened up and saw familiar names
Now I wonder where they've gone
[Chorus]
Conversations with my dead friends
Messages from all my exes
I kinda think that this was best left
In the past where it belongs
I feel an overwhelming sadness
Of all the friends I do not have left
Seeing how my family has fracturеd
Growing up and moving on
[Verse 2]
I found my old phone today
Arguments that I tried to keep at bay
Thе ones who loved me, I just pushed them away
Couldn't tell the difference from the leeches
My closed hand still holds some mates
But if I'm open, it gets smaller day by day
I can't tell if it is pleasure or pain
Trying to keep within my remit
[Chorus]
Conversations with my dead friends
Messages from all my exes
I kinda think that this was best left
There in the past where it belongs
I feel an overwhelming sadness
Of all the friends I do not have left
Seeing how my family has fractured
Growing up and moving on
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
[Bridge]
I found my old phone today
So full of love, yet so full of hate
I put it back inside there from whence it came
Nothing good will come from regretting
[Chorus]
Conversations with my dead friends
Messages from all my exes
I kinda think that this was best left
There in the past where it belongs
I feel an overwhelming sadness
Of all the friends I do not have left
Seeing how my family has fractured
Growing up and moving on
[Outro]
I found my old phone today

I got rid of my phone 2015, and moved onto email full time. I just turned my phone off December ‘15 and that was it. When I got sued, the judge ordered me to give up my old devices to the other sides lawyers, to look through messages, emails, voice notes, videos, etc, to see if there’s was anything...
During the tracking week ending May 17, 2025, the song debuted at #89 on the Hot 100. The song marked his 57th appearance on the chart at the time.
