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 
What if the world won't take me? 

Even if the hole 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 of the pain it brings 
Feeling the panic building up 

I'd rather the broken heart 
Than living the emptiness 
What if the world won't save me? 

Even if the bough should break 
Even if the [bad word] 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 somewhere [bad word] 
You can throw me away as long as I feel it 
Show me something real 
You can deceive me 
I am yours to use 
Use me up
