Lyrics for Abandoner as interpreted by Mr.Rabbit

Abandoner Lyrics
The other half is somewhere else.
A play in the dark,
Whines like dogs.

I am restless, I am lost.
Time freezes all. Flawless eyes.

Your rope you used to tie yourself,
dreams into planes, scatter remains.

I reach for you, denied your touch.
Snow starts to blind, I confide.

In the Insurgentes book the line is "dreams enter plains, scatter remains".
I also think it's "the rope you used to tie your soul", not "your rope you used to tie yourself", but this could be wrong, I'm not English and I can't understand the words he says perfectly.
Anyway, very obscure (for me) but beautiful lyrics.

The final line is actually 'Snow starts to glide, I confide.' It's tough to hear. I know I kept missing it! Haha. But if you listen to The Engineers remix of Abandoner of the Insurgentes minisite, you can clearly hear Steven say 'glide.' Thanks for posting the lyrics for us!!

I'm pretty sure it's about a breakup, hence the title. Lines that support this:
"The other half is somewhere else" the other half being his lover.
"Time freezes all. Flawless eyes" the memory of what she looked like.
"The rope you used to tie your soul" the metaphor of a relationship as being tied to another person.
"I reach for you, denied your touch" self-explanatory.

The rest is very visual, but I'm not sure of the meaning. It may only have meaning to the person in the song.

Yeah, like I said on my other posts, I was mainly just trying to get at least SOME of these songs on here, so mistakes are heavily likely. Now if I can just figure out how to edit...
