Lyrics

So much has been given and I don't expect it back

The speaker has given a lot but doesn’t anticipate receiving anything in return.

You can only take for so long, until there's nothing left

People can only take from others for a limited time before exhausting what's available.

Burned and forgotten, it's hard to hide the scars

The scars from being hurt or mistreated are difficult to conceal.

How much more can I take until I'm pushed,

Questioning how much more mistreatment the speaker can endure before reaching a breaking point.

Pushed too far

Feeling pushed to a limit that's too much to handle.

Another day goes by and I still feel the same

Despite time passing, the emotional state remains unchanged.

I want to open up but you just drift away

Desire to open up emotionally, but the person the speaker wants to confide in is emotionally distant.

Anyone but me and you might make a change

Suggesting that anyone other than the current person might bring about a positive change.

Right here, no more you've taken everything

Asserting that the person has taken everything from the speaker at this point.


Why do I come here, time and time again

Questioning the reason for returning to a situation repeatedly despite not receiving anything in return.

When everything I ever gave has never been returned

Expressing disappointment that efforts made have never been reciprocated.

I know I've set myself up to take another fall

Recognizing a pattern of setting oneself up for disappointment or failure again.

One more drop of blood, but there's nothing left

Metaphorically describing giving more but having nothing more to offer.

Nothing left at all

Feeling completely depleted, having nothing left to give.


Another day goes by and I still feel the same

Reiteration of the unchanging emotional state despite the passage of time.

I want to open up but you just drift away

Desire to share feelings, but the intended recipient remains emotionally distant.

Anyone but me and you might make a change

Suggesting that someone else might bring about a positive change in the situation.

right here, no more you've taken everything

Reassertion that the person has taken everything from the speaker.


Don't talk to me about sincerity

Rejecting insincere conversations or gestures, particularly when the person lacks genuine understanding.

When you don't know the word

Pointing out the lack of understanding or authenticity in the other person's actions.

You used the friends who helped you out

Accusing the person of using friends for help and then abandoning them.

You crossed the bridge than burned it

Metaphorically describing a relationship that was destroyed deliberately after benefiting from it.


For the last time

Repetition emphasizes the finality or desperation of the situation, possibly indicating this is the end of tolerating mistreatment or one-sidedness in the relationship.
