Lyrics

Somebody let me down

Feeling disappointed or betrayed by someone

Somebody show me love

Seeking affection or acknowledgment of love

I wouldn't care much either way

Indifference to the outcome of receiving love

I'd rather the sticks and stones

Prefer enduring criticism and hardship than emotional burdens

Than dragging the ball and chain

Choosing to avoid the weight of emotional attachments

Of what if the world won't take me?

Questioning acceptance by the world

Even if the holes should crack

Even if difficulties arise, suggesting resilience

And even if the blood flows red

Enduring challenges, possibly symbolic of perseverance

Nothing could be worse than numb

Emphasizing that numbness is the worst state


So, please, use me up

Expressing a desire to be utilized or needed

I just want anyone to use me up

Seeking to be used by anyone for a purpose

'Cause no one ever does

Reflecting on a lack of being utilized by others

Use me up

Reiterating the plea to be used by someone


I've carried it all too long

Enduring a burden or emotional weight for too long

The fear of the pain it brings

Fearing the emotional pain associated with love

Feeling the panic building up

Experiencing anxiety and stress building up

I'd rather the broken heart

Prefering heartbreak over emotional void

Than live in the emptiness

Choosing to avoid a life of emptiness

Of what if the world won't save me?

Doubting salvation or rescue from the world

Even if the bow should break

Even if facing challenges, maintaining composure

Even if the blood runs cold

Enduring difficulties even if emotions run cold

Nothing could be worse than numb

Nothing worse than the numbness of emotions


Please, use me up

Reiterating the plea to be used or needed

I just want anyone to use me up

Expressing a willingness to be used by anyone

'Cause no one ever does

Reflecting on the lack of being utilized by others

Use me up

Repeating the plea to be used by someone

Use me up

Emphasizing the desire to be used, possibly for meaning


Treat me somewhat cruel

Accepting mistreatment or harsh treatment

You can throw me away

Being disposable, as long as there is a genuine feeling

As long as I feel it

Desiring authentic experiences and emotions

Show me something real

Seeking genuine and real interactions

You can deceive me

Willingness to be deceived as long as there is connection

I am yours to use

Offering oneself to be used by someone

Use me up

Repeating the plea to be used by someone

Use me up

Reiterating the willingness to be utilized

Use me up

Continuing the plea to be used or needed
