Somebody let me down
Somebody show me love
I wouldn't care much either way
I'd rather the sticks and stones
Than dragging the ball and chain
But what if the world won't save me?
And even if the hull should crack
Even if the blood flows red
Nothing could be worse than numb
Please, use me up
I just want anyone to use me up
'Cause no one ever does
Use me up
I've carried it all too long
The fear and the pain it brings
Feeling the panic building up
I'd rather the broken heart
Than live in the emptiness
But what if the world won't take me?
But even if the bow should break
Even if the blood runs cold
Nothing could be worse than numb
Please, use me up
I just want anyone to use me up
'Cause no one ever does
Use me up
Use me up
Treat me some way cruel
You can throw me away as long as I feel it
Show me something true
You can deceive me
I am yours to use
Use me up
Use me up
