I abandoned my heart on the roadside.
I left it along the way.
It bled my blood.
It oozed day by day.

I abandoned you to die.
I left you over there.
For you to suffer.
I didn't much care.

I abandoned faith and hope.
It flew away with my humanity.
You made me give up.
I think I have lost my sanity.

I took so little to abandon everything I came to know.
But it takes so much for me to get the things I want to know.
It is just the way life is.
It is the way I grow.
