You left me alone
You left me to die
You turned my heart into stone
'Cause all your love was a lie

Now I find that I'm
Lost and confused
All that used to rhyme
Sounds strange and abused

Those lines inside my head
Don't work anymore
Now I lie in my bed
With a festering sore

Without you I'm lost
Unable to stand
My heart's covered in frost
Held tight in your hand
