After releasing numerous demos, splits, and EPs, Left Alone released their first full-length, Streets of Wilmington, in 2002. A year later, the band compiled their earlier, out-of-print recordings on the anthology Left Alone: 1996-2000. In 2003, Cortez went on the Warped Tour as a roadie.

While on the Warped Tour, Tim Armstrong of Rancid heard Left Alone's 2004 album, Lonely Starts & Broken Hearts. Armstrong signed the band to his label, Hellcat Records, and re-released Lonely Starts & Broken Hearts. The band released their third full-length album, Dead American Radio, on August 8, 2006, which features guest appearances from Tim Armstrong and Patricia Day of the Horrorpops.
The band released their self-titled album on April 7, 2009.
In The Dark
Left Alone Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And made the pain just like a shark
There is no need for talking
Don't get tired for explaining
Nothing will be the same again
And our love never will begin
Stop telling me about your regrets
You'd never touch my soul again
And never search my heart again
Cause i don't wanna hear your usual lies
Wooow it's too late
I'm afraid ex love, i started to hate
Wooow it's too late
I'm afraid ex love, i started to hate
I deeply felt as i die
(Understood)
Lately everything was lie
Fought with my soul and heart
(Try to push)
You away so hard
Nothing will be the same again
And our love never will begin
Stop telling me about your regrets
You'd never touch my soul again
And never search my heart again
Cause i don't wanna hear your usual lies
Wooow it's too late
I'm afraid ex love, i started to hate
Wooow it's too late
I'm afraid ex love, i started to hate
(...)
Wooow it's too late
I'm afraid ex love, i started to hate
Wooow it's too late (too late)
I'm afraid ex love, i started to hate
Wooow it's too late
I'm afraid ex love, i started to hate
Wooow it's too late
I'm afraid ex love, i started to hate
(I started to hate)

Line by Line Meaning
You left me alone in dark
You abandoned me in a place where there is no light
And made the pain just like a shark
And you intensified the suffering so much that it's unbearable
There is no need for talking
There's no point in trying to communicate or explain anything
Don't get tired for explaining
Don't bother trying to justify your actions
Nothing will be the same again
Things will never be the way they were before
And our love never will begin
Our relationship was doomed from the start
Stop telling me about your regrets
I don't want to hear any more empty apologies
You'd never touch my soul again
You've lost the ability to connect with me on a deep emotional level
And never search my heart again
You'll never truly try to understand my feelings or motivations
Cause i don't wanna hear your usual lies
Because I'm tired of hearing the same old excuses and falsehoods
Wooow it's too late
The situation has already passed the point of no return
I'm afraid ex love, i started to hate
I'm filled with anger and resentment towards you
I deeply felt as i die
I felt like a part of me died as a result of your actions
Lately everything was lie
Recently, I've come to realize that everything you said was false
Fought with my soul and heart
I struggled to come to terms with the emotional turmoil you caused me
You away so hard
I tried my best to push you out of my life
Wooow it's too late (too late)
The situation has passed the point of no return (repeated)
I started to hate
I've developed intense negative feelings towards you
