Left For Dead Lyrics

[Intro]
Left for dead

[Verse 1]
Always knew that love was blind
But much to my surprise
The veil over my eyes was all a lie
I can see now looking back
The water in the cracks
I’m sinking into black, it was all a lie
I caught every stone you’d throw
You kept me feelin' low
There’s nowhere left to go, now I see the lies

[Chorus]
All the signs I missed
Led me straight to this
Everything I ever wanted but you don’t exist
Now I can’t forget all that I regret
You pulled in, pushed me out
Now I’m lеft for dead

[Verse 2]
When all is said and done
I know you’rе not the one
And everything inside of me was sayin' I should run
You could take my breath away
With your pleasure and your pain
But you can never take back
The fact you can’t back the things you say
[Chorus]
All the signs I missed
Led me straight to this
Everything I ever wanted but you don’t exist
Now I can’t forget all that I regret
You pulled in, pushed me out
Now I’m left for dead

[Breakdown]
I feel so sorry for the next one in line
They’ll never know that you’re a skeleton without a spine
No spine

[Chorus]
All the signs I missed
Led me straight to this-
All the signs I missed
Led me straight to this
Everything I ever wanted but you don’t exist
Now I can’t forget all that I regret
You pulled in, pushed me out
Now I’m left for dead

[Outro]
All the signs I missed
Led me straight to this
Now I can’t forget
You pulled in, pushed me out
Now I’m left for dead
Now I’m left for dead
They’ll never know that you’re a skeleton without a spine

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
