Half-Second Hearts
by 张琛博
Lyrics
Verse 1
You typed “hs”
Two letters
That’s it
Tiny spark
On a cracked phone screen
Don’t know your face
Don’t know your scene
Still I feel
Like you pinged my sleep
Chorus
Half‑second hearts in the chat (hs)
Blink and they’re gone so fast
You leave a trace
Erased
But it lingers in my chest
Half‑second hearts
Just a flash (hs)
Still I keep scrolling back
To that nothing that you sent
Funny how it feels like
More than it meant (oh)
Verse 2
Could be a hi
Could be a slip
Could be a sigh
From your thumbs mid-trip
I fill the gaps
With a whole lifeline
You drop crumbs
I draw designs
Chorus
Half‑second hearts in the chat (hs)
Blink and they’re gone so fast
You leave a trace
Erased
But it lingers in my chest
Half‑second hearts
Just a flash (hs)
Still I keep scrolling back
To that nothing that you sent
Funny how it feels like
More than it meant (yeah)
