[Verse 1 – whispered/snapped, confessional] I tried to speak — you looked away Don’t want to hear what I have to say Hide your eyes when I break apart Walk out the door, leave me in the dark You don’t see what’s inside my head You don’t care if I wish I was dead Turn your back, it’s easier that way You don’t want to feel what I can’t escape [Chorus – anguished, shouted chant] Abandoned! — left to rot! Every piece of me — you forgot! Abandoned! — can’t you see? You’re the reason there’s nothing left of me! [Verse 2 – jagged, bitter delivery] Your laughter burns like acid rain You think my hurt is just a game You shut me down, you push me out Leave me choking on my doubt I can’t stand when you fake your smile Pretend you care, just stay for a while But I know you can’t deal with me So you run away, set yourself free [Chorus – anguished, shouted chant] Abandoned! — left to rot! Every piece of me — you forgot! Abandoned! — can’t you see? You’re the reason there’s nothing left of me! [Bridge – manic whispers breaking into screams] [Whispered] I needed you… but you weren’t there… [Whispered] I called your name… nobody cared… [Screamed] YOU TURNED AWAY! YOU LET ME BLEED! YOU LEFT ME BROKEN — ON MY KNEES! [Breakdown – guttural scat-like rhythm, JD-style] (Da-da-DAH!) — inside my head (Da-da-DAH!) — I wish I was dead (Da-da-DAH!) — you’re never there (SCREAM) — you don’t care! [Chorus – final explosion, layered screams] Abandoned! — left to rot! Every piece of me — you forgot! Abandoned! — can’t you see? You’re the reason there’s nothing left of me! [Outro – whispered decay, eerie] I tried to speak… you walked away… I tried to scream… but you let me fade… Abandoned… abandoned… [Breakdown – guttural scat-like rhythm, JD-style] (Da-da-DAH!) — inside my head (Da-da-DAH!) — I wish I was dead (Da-da-DAH!) — you’re never there (SCREAM) — you don’t care! [Chorus – final explosion, layered screams] Abandoned! — left to rot! Every piece of me — you forgot! Abandoned! — can’t you see? You’re the reason there’s nothing left of me! [Outro – whispered decay, eerie] I tried to speak… you walked away… I tried to scream… but you let me fade… Abandoned… abandoned…
