I just wrote the word dry down for something and this popped into my head.
High and Dry
© 2022 Cindy Prince
No clue
That you'd do
What you did
You went
With no hint
God forbid
No suggestion
Or confession
You were gone
You bolted
Left me jolted
I am done
Chorus
You left me high and dry
And I can't even cry
I'm just frozen
I can't really feel
Let alone heal
Just goin' through the motions...motions
Bridge
You are a coward to not even face me
Good luck out there tryin' to replace me
No talking
Just walking
Somewhere else
You're history
Not a mystery
Go f*ck yourself
Repeat chorus

This here is a damn fine bunch of lyrics! You do a mighty good job of describing how this rascal done gone and left you! I 'specially love that last line!!!
@greengrassgirl Feb 2022
I especially like, "Good luck out there tryin' to replace me". Perfect attitude for this one!

What a great kick-*ss vibe! This reads like something the Chicks would sing.

Awesome ending on a fab set of lyric. Like how you can use so few words to do something great.

Oh my gosh! That last line is perfect but what a surprise! Ha Great concise write. Great flow and rhymes. Should take to music pretty easily!

I really like this lyric and I feel like if it got a demo, there could be a really nice build up because at first the lyrics give off a sad/confused vibe and then from the bridge it all of a sudden gets angry. I bet it would be great if sung! I dig how you use so few words but with so much meaning.
