"Abandon" lyrics

"Abandon"

Abandon me
Face down in the gutter with no will to pick myself up
Left me to rot in that bed for another
Another one to take my place and your face is a fading memory
(A fading memory)
So tell me how you sleep at night
Knowing you left before I was awake

Before you leave to turn and run
I've got a mind to tell you what a disappointment
You have made of yourself in a single moment
See I'd prefer my eyes were blind
Than to sit and watch you leave me behind

So tell me how you sleep at night
Knowing you left before I was awake
Now I feel my heart divide
Knowing how quickly you cast me aside

You can't fathom what it's like
The subtle hell trapped in my mind
And at the end of the tunnel
You were the light shining so bright
What's the point when it always seems to die?
Left me to rot for another to die alone
Keep living your life like I never mattered to you

Before you leave to turn and run
I've got a mind to tell you what a disappointment
You have made of yourself in a single moment
See I'd prefer my eyes were blind
Than to sit and watch you leave me behind

So tell me how you sleep at night
Knowing you left before I was awake
Now I feel my heart divide
Knowing how quickly you cast me aside
Abandon and run, just like I did to you
So I don't see how you sleep at night
Knowing you left before I was awake

You don't know what it's like
To open your eyes to a dead light
Give up on me, I gave up on you
The first reaction is to abandon
Abandon me
Give up on me, I gave up on you
Give up on me, I gave up on you
