The Abandoned - Memphis May Fire

Staring at the wall

I never thought this would be so hard

How could have I been so close and never known you?

I never knew, I never knew you at all!

You will always be my father but I hope you know

It’s your fault that I’ll never know what that means

You left a void that never could be replaced

I am dying inside but you will never see!

I always had hoped that you did not want it this way

But no matter how hard I try you always pushed me away

You said you loved me but…

How was I supposed to know

(How was I supposed to know)

When you left me here

You left me here alone?

Do I ever even cross your mind

Just for a second?

Do you know I’m alive?

You know I would let you in but you threw everything away

So tell me what did you get from all of these years of pain?

You have no clue what I’ve been through

But I guess that you wanted it that way!

How was I supposed to know

(How was I supposed to know)

When you left me here

You left me here alone?

Do I ever even cross your mind

Just for a second?

Do you know I’m alive?

If you would’ve been there

If you would’ve stuck around

If you would’ve been there when I needed you

You would’ve been

You would’ve been so proud!

You said you loved me but…

How was I supposed to know

(How was I supposed to know)

When you left me here

You left me here alone?

Do I ever even cross your mind

Just for a second?

Do you know I’m alive?
