Once again, you have dented my pride, 
pushed me away, tossed me aside; 
I'm battered, abandoned and empty inside 
until you want me again. 
 
There was a time you needed me more, 
taking me places to see and explore; 
I was part of your life, like the clothes that you wore 
but something happened back then. 
 
Now here I lie, lonely, forgotten it seems -- 
a case of neglect since you ran out of dreams; 
you don't see my bruises, you don't hear the screams 
of a suitcase who still recalls when...
