Left With Nothing

[Verse 1]
You ignored me in the hallway
Eyes slid past like I was air
I mistook your silence for maybe
You were already never there
[Chorus]
You left me thinkin I had a chance
You were sick of me
I never had a chance
You laughed at me
Pushed me out of frame
All I asked for was a chance
Just a chance
To love you
See you
Feel you
Now I’m left with nothing but your name
[Verse 2]
All those jokes you made in whispers
I pretended not to hear
You were done before I started
I was just an easy dare
[Chorus]
You left me thinkin I had a chance
You were sick of me
I never had a chance
You laughed at me
Pushed me out of frame
All I asked for was a chance
Just a chance
To love you
See you
Feel you
Now I’m left with nothing but your name
[Bridge]
Was I that hard to look at?
That hard to stand near?
You turned my heart to a punchline
I turned your absence into fear
[Chorus]
You left me thinkin I had a chance
You were sick of me
I never had a chance
You laughed at me
Pushed me out of frame
All I asked for was a chance
Just a chance
To love you
See you
Feel you
Now I’m left with nothing
Yeah
I’m left with nothing

Crunchy indie rock band in a tight room, male vocals on the edge of breaking. Dry drums and gritty bass carry a mid-tempo stomp; verses stay close and bitter, chorus opens with wide guitars and gang-style shouts on key phrases. Short, raw bridge with half-time drums before a final, shout-along chorus that cuts off sharp.
