Song Lyrics

You didn't stop to look 'round
You were gone before I hit the ground
You went on your way
And no prayer was said
You left me for dead

You didn't cover my face
I didn't merit a communal grave
You set me aside
And no tears were shed
You left me for dead

And I say, I won't stop, no, 'till Hell is your home
There's no where to hide, no, nowhere
You'll feel the cold of my gun at your head
You left me for dead

It's not like you stayed at my side
Or you called me a priest
You searched through my mouth
To check for gold teeth
You were pawning my shoes as I bled
You left me for, left me for, left me for dead

You kept takin' your time
Until you were certain I couldn't survive
Judas remained, you turned and fled
You left me for dead

And it didn't trouble your mind
It did not disturb you to see me decline
You turned out my lights, you put me to bed
You left me for dead

And I say, I won't rest my head until Hell is your home
You think that you're safe, but oh no
You'll feel the cold of my gun hit your head
You left me for dead

And you stay close to me, didn't stay by my side
I was choking in blood as the laugh filled your eyes
You were a bum for each word that you said
'Cause you left me for, left me for dead

But I don't want to search no more
There's nowhere to hide
So, why don't you come quietly, my love
I wanted to say,
To say that you sure proved the death of me
'Cause now I've reached a dead end
And I can't go back
But if I'm going down you'll come with me

'Cause you didn't stop to look 'round
You were gone before I hit the ground
You went on your way and no prayer was said
You left me for dead
'Cause you didn't cover my face
I didn't merit a communal grave
You set me aside and no tears were shed
You left for me dead

I know each word that was said
You left me for dead
You left me for dead
