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 a 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.
