ABANDONED
ABANDONED
Abandoned like the red sea
annoyed by the crying wind
that comes around
in a clumsy way
just for me to hear
what it is he wants to say
I don't play that way,
Deep into the night
Dark Angel gives me fright
assaulting me putting me at risk
he is making me so sick
he gives me so much punishment
when things don't go his way,
Oh, crying autumn
here I am in the night
on the ground for the found
cut deep with no sleep
my body is cold like the dead
on colored autumn leaves while,
I bleed like the old red sea.
