left for dead

“Left for dead”

The words i hear they hurt like something stabbing me a million times

i don’t know what to say or think You left me for dead

 

You took me for granted you were once my only friend

we were really close we did everything together then You left me for dead

 

You hit me with words verbally and hit me physically you beat me and left right away

was someone coming i don’t know You left me for dead

 

We used to know each other we used to be there for each other and now you're gone

you're not the same you hurt me but You left for dead

 

You put me away for someone prettier, better

she was richer and acted better than me You left me for dead

 

You did what you could but eventually it got out of hand i couldn’t take

everything happened so fast You left me for dead

 

You took the last breath i had The last thought i had The last words i had

The last move i had You took everything from me You left me for dead
