Left Me for Dead

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

Ah, 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 nowhere to hide, no, nowhere

You’ll feel the cold of my gun at your head

Ah, you left me for dead

And it’s not like you stayed by 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 on taking your time

Until it was certain I couldn’t survive

Judas remained, you turned and fled

Ah, 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

Ah, you left me for dead

And I say that I won’t rest my head until Hell is your home

You’ll think that you’re safe, but oh no

You’ll feel the cold of my gun hit your head

Ah, you left me for dead

And you didn’t stay close to me, didn’t stay by my side

I was choking in blood as delight filled your eyes

You’re going to burn for each word that was said

‘Cause you left me for, 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 then you’ll come with me

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

Ah, 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 me for dead
