With the fusion of electronics and classy pop-punk, ABANDONED BY BEARS were not limited by the frames music is typically written. “We don't follow the norm or what is right or wrong, we follow what we think sounds good. Our songwriting process is very unorthodox in a way, since we record everything ourselves, we can basically decide when we want to record and that gives us a type of freedom which shines through in the songs. All of us have the ability to play and understand each others instruments, so everyone writes, whether it’d be melodies, lyrics, guitar leads or drum fills.”

For The Sake of Nothing
Abandoned By Bears Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't wanna be the bearer of the bad news
With nothing to hold on to
You wasted all your pride for the sake of nothing
For the sake of nothing
You made me question everything about you
I gave up my hopes
You are breathing down my spine
Without a thought that it'd might break
Never bothered much of my pain
My feelings and mind won't be yours to take
Won't be yours to take
I know, you know that I am not the only who could
Honestly say that there is no more room left here
For someone like you
But you can't blame me for being honest
What did you expect?
This situation is none of my concern
Now you know your place
You're slowly fading away
It took me some time to realize
The way I've been twisting and turning
Just to please you
Please you
You need to break the frame and watch it all fall out
Don't even let your mind think about doubt
And you've been given the chance to prove yourself
For me and everyone around you
I tried my hardest but you keep pushing me back
I don't wanna be the bearer of the bad news
With nothing to hold on to
You wasted all your pride for the sake of nothing
You'll the weight of the world on your shoulders
It was a fallout, what you did
Nothing you can say will make me afraid again
Make me afraid again
The song "For The Sake of Nothing" by Abandoned By Bears is about a toxic relationship, where one person tries hard to make things work, while the other person keeps pushing them away, causing them to question their own beliefs and aspirations. The lyrics suggest that the other person has wasted their pride and efforts for nothing, as they have not contributed to the relationship positively. The singer of the song has reached a breaking point and realizes that they need to be honest about the situation and move on.
The lyrics convey a sense of betrayal, hurt, and disappointment. The singer feels suffocated in the relationship and expresses their emotional turmoil through the lyrics. The lines "You are breathing down my spine, without a thought that it might break, Never bothered much of my pain, my feelings and mind won't be yours to take" suggest that the other person is not concerned about their partner's well-being and is only focused on their own needs.
Overall, the song invokes a message about self-reflection and standing up for oneself in a toxic relationship. It encourages listeners to break free from unhealthy situations and to focus on their own needs and aspirations.

I tried my hardest but you keep pushing me back
I gave it my all, but still you resist my attempts to connect
I don't wanna be the bearer of the bad news
I dislike having to be the person to deliver negative information
With nothing to hold on to
There is no evidence to support your stance
You wasted all your pride for the sake of nothing
You sacrificed your dignity without a worthy cause
For the sake of nothing
You acted without a valid motive or explanation
You made me question everything about you
Your actions caused me to doubt your character completely
I gave up my hopes
I lost my dreams and aspirations due to your actions
And everything you made me believe in
You shattered my trust and ruined everything I had faith in
You are breathing down my spine
You are constantly hovering near me and causing discomfort
Without a thought that it'd might break
You don't consider the impact that your presence might have on me
Never bothered much of my pain
You are insensitive to how your actions affect me and cause me distress
My feelings and mind won't be yours to take
I won't allow you to control my emotions and thoughts
I know, you know that I am not the only who could
Individuals besides me understand that your actions are unacceptable
Honestly say that there is no more room left here
There is no space for you in my life anymore
For someone like you
Your character and behavior are not welcome in my life
But you can't blame me for being honest
I cannot be faulted for speaking my truth
What did you expect?
Your expectation should have been less than what I could offer
This situation is none of my concern
I refuse to involve myself in the issues that you created
Now you know your place
You were made aware of your position and what is expected of you
You're slowly fading away
You are disappearing from my life, little by little
It took me some time to realize
I needed time to evaluate the situation before making a decision
The way I've been twisting and turning
I have been contorting myself to meet your needs and expectations
Just to please you
I am doing everything to make you content
You need to break the frame and watch it all fall out
You need to reconsider your approach and the outcome it has
Don't even let your mind think about doubt
Have confidence in your decision making
And you've been given the chance to prove yourself
There is an opportunity to redeem yourself in the eyes of others
For me and everyone around you
Your reputation and behavior will affect everyone in your life
You'll the weight of the world on your shoulders
You'll carry a heavy burden due to your actions
It was a fallout, what you did
Your actions had a catastrophic result on those involved
Nothing you can say will make me afraid again
You have no power or influence over me anymore
Make me afraid again
Force me to submit to your will

How about all of you quit disliking this video because Victory put it up, Abandoned By Bears is an incredibly talented band and shouldn't get hate just because they're on Victory's label.
