Left Me For Dead
Curse the day, curse the day that I met you
Curse the way that I still can't forget
All those things you said
Going round and round in my head
Can't find a release
Well it's like a disease
Like dementia but in reverse,
I remember the names
I recall all of the action
When you stuck your knife in and
Left me there for dead
Turn away, turn away I can't stand this
Freak show car crash
Slow motion deadly kiss
Love is a butterfly armed to the eye teeth
Spite in its' cold heart and psychotic tendencies
So don't get in it's way
Or you'll just have a bad day
And I'm running the footage back
I see all of the frames
I recall all the lost evenings
When you stuck the boot in and
Left me for dead
Well I've tried hard to bury the past
In the back of my brain
But it comes flooding back whenever I
See your face again
And I know when you smile
They're crocodile teeth and
What lurks underneath would just
Gut you
Cut you down
Just as soon as look at you
And so, they say
"What doesn't kill you just makes you stronger!"
That we live to fight, another day
Yeah another day
So I'll own those battle scars
Wear them with pride, now I
Know that I'm tougher than
You can imagine
And there's always the Schadenfreude
Well you left me for greener pastures
The other side of the fence
It was meant to be oh so easy and
I was just loose ends
Well it turns out that life
Can twist in your grip
And turn on you quick
The fairy tale ending turns
Into a nightmare
Pretty sure this wasn't part of the script
Well you left me for dead
(Dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)
Well you left me for dead
(Dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)
Well you left me for dead
(Dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)
(Dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)
Curse the way that I still can't forget
All those things you said
Going round and round in my head
Can't find a release
Well it's like a disease
Like dementia but in reverse,
I remember the names
I recall all of the action
When you stuck your knife in and
Left me there for dead
Turn away, turn away I can't stand this
Freak show car crash
Slow motion deadly kiss
Love is a butterfly armed to the eye teeth
Spite in its' cold heart and psychotic tendencies
So don't get in it's way
Or you'll just have a bad day
And I'm running the footage back
I see all of the frames
I recall all the lost evenings
When you stuck the boot in and
Left me for dead
Well I've tried hard to bury the past
In the back of my brain
But it comes flooding back whenever I

Well you left me for dead
(Dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)
Well you left me for dead
(Dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)
Well you left me for dead
(Dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)
(Dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)
