    I did not find a good match for your lyrics.
    However, it does remind me of an old Jim Reeves (C&W) song, "He`ll Have To Go" (1960).
    Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
    Just pretend that we`re together all alone

    It has been covered by numerous C&W artists and even Elvis Presley.
    The most recent cover I can find by a non-C&W artist is Elvis Costello.
    Them that can, do; them that can't... memorize Artist and Title

    Yeah, that's not it. All I know is there something about her, late at night pretending the phone rings, and pretending it's me

    Next wild guess is "Marking Time" by Roy Drusky

    In the dark of the night when you're holding her tight
    Do you know she's pretending it's me
    Them that can, do; them that can't... memorize Artist and Title

    This is a super longshot guess based on the fact that the lyrics look very, very "emo" and has some of your key words.
    "Unwelcome" by Jasmine Whenham

    Told you that I love you
    You must have misheard
    Maybe you were searching for a catchier verb
    Wrote it in a letter
    But you misunderstood
    I should've known you would

    And now I'm unwelcome
    You've made that quite clear
    I am unwelcome
    To come around here
    And if I call you on the phone
    You'll pretend you're not at home
    And I'm crying to the dial tone

    I am in love and unwelcome
    I am in love and unwelcome
    Dying to get back to where I fell from
    When I fell for you

    Guess I'll go walking
    And try to clear my head
    My mind keeps on rewinding to the last thing you said
    Told me that it's over
    and you sounded sincere
    There's nothing left for me here

    And now I'm unwelcome
    You've made that quite clear
    I am unwelcome
    To come around here
    And if I call you on the phone
    You'll pretend you're not at home
    And I'm crying to the dial tone

    I am in love and unwelcome
    I am in love and unwelcome
    Dying to get back to where I fell from
    When I fell for you

    When did I become so weak- what was I thinking
    Always turned the other cheek- what was I thinking
    Never should've tried to speak my mind- what was I thinking
    Really should've known, really should've known, should've known better

    And now I'm unwelcome
    You've made that quite clear
    I am unwelcome
    To come around here
    And if I call you on the phone
    You'll pretend you're not at home
    And I'm crying to the dial tone

    I am in love and unwelcome
    I am in love and unwelcome
    Dying to get back to where I fell from
    When I fell for you
    I am dying to get back to where I fell from
    When I fell from you
