Left For Dead
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Greed has caused you to become a monster
Greed has caused you to become so cold
You said you loved him, then you put him away
"Till death do us part" means nothing to you
Greed has caused you to betray your family
Greed has caused you to become so jaded
We've got some news for you, every dollar you save
Will cushion your pillows in hell
You act like we're blind, deaf and dumb
Betrayal has now left us numb
We're sorry we can't escape from
This choice now we all must succumb
He's been thrown away, left for dead
This is the only father we've had
Oh thrown away (Thrown away)
Left for dead (Left for dead)
How could you choose money instead?
Instead
Greed has caused you to become a monster
Greed has caused you to become so cold
We've got some news for you; every dollar you save
Will cushion your pillows in hell
Hell
You act like we're blind, deaf and dumb
Betrayal has now left us numb
We're sorry we can't escape from
This choice now we all must succumb
He's been thrown away, left for dead
This is the only father we've had
Oh thrown away (Thrown away)
Left for dead (Left for dead)
How could you choose money instead?
We will never forget
We will never forget that you're the reason
This sadness has overwhelmed us
This grief is too much to bear (To bear)
How can we look you in the eyes?
How could you ruin his life?
After all the years of joy he brought us
There is no 'we' anymore (Anymore)
There is no 'us' anymore (Anymore)
You will have to live your last days in infamy
How could you do this?
How could you choose to have him
Thrown away, left for dead
This is the only father we've had
Thrown away (Thrown away)
Left for dead (Left for dead)
How could you choose money instead?
Left for dead
Left for dead
This is the only father we've had
Left for dead
