Useless
Assisted Living Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So follow everyone and act like you are the only one who's not useless now. Get what you want now you are gone, why do we give up anything? So you can feel like everything is O.K. if you walk away. I don't mind if you don't mind.
I'm Useless now. Get what you want now I become suddenly blind and I scream. I can't believe that you deceive, help me see.
Does anybody recognize the source of it all? Is keeping us from going down the path we have chose. Suddenly I find myself immersed in your soul, one more time.
I'm Useless now. I can't believe that you deceive, help me see. My hands won't bleed. I know you will say what you will suddenly. I'm useless now.
