The final song on the album, “Abandoned” uses dark electronic sounds, many reversed sound effects, and heavy distortion to create a unique alternative sound-scape, finalizing both the sound and the themes of “Shades and Silhouettes.”

[Verse 1]
Everything you do makes me possessed
By a robotic industry, one could say that I'm obsessed
They know that you're a victim in my crime
Righteousness fuming deep inside my soul and
Waiting for the rest of us to die
Stop thinking of me as a criminal
I'm not a mastermind, I just want to save a life
Burdened and told to cry
Can't live with your blood on my hands
Living in your shattered lands
I don't know what I can do
To get it through to you
[Chorus]
Abandoned we lie
Let us rust up and die
Don't deny what you promised was fraud, oh
You tortured a soul
I have my monster and control
It doesn't have to be this way
Hell will fall on you today
[Verse 2]
Heartlеss rumors that you think are smart
The answer liеs inside your prayers so
You can't help but restart
A cult of artificial sanity
Depleting constantly rapidly
The real you's somewhere in there, now get out
Fifteen days, left to give
Them something they can't outlive
It's going to tear me apart
More than a broken heart
A brutal virus is here
It's taking hold of your fear
And when it finally ends
You'll be the ones to bend
[Bridge]
I'm taking prisms folding inward into a creation
I got a vision you're missing so listen up I'm gonna
Sacrifice the mission, turn away and glisten
A new spark of hope into a derelict division
The infection has already risen
This morbid emission has once more come into
Fruition, you think you're imprisoned, no you're just
Losing cognition now please let me send this transmission
[Chorus]
Abandoned we lie
Let us rust up and die
Don't deny what you promised was fraud, oh
You tortured a soul
I have my monster and control
It doesn't have to be this way
Hell will fall on you today
