Lyrics to Is This All That You Wanted Me For
Everybody's got a chain that they need to break
We're all holding onto something we don't need
Some people always give less than they take
And they're the first to tell you what they need
Should've seen it out on the horizon
But maybe I was just too afraid to look
And I tried to hold you like a lover
But you broke me just like a crook
I picked up the pieces that were shattered
And I laid red roses on your door
Now it's like it never even mattered
Tell me is this all that you wanted me for
Now I'm standing here holding onto nothing
While you just smiled and walked away
Like I'm just some casual acquaintance
That you just met somewhere along the way
Just like some schoolyard crush you flattered
Till you didn't need it anymore
Now I'm left here stitching up the tatters
Tell me, is this all that you wanted me for?
I'm here with all the pieces you left scattered
Just strung out and stranded on the floor
I guess it never even mattered
Tell me, is this all that you wanted me for?
Hey!
Is this all you wanted me for?
Is this all you wanted me for?
We're all holding onto something we don't need
Some people always give less than they take
And they're the first to tell you what they need
Should've seen it out on the horizon
But maybe I was just too afraid to look
And I tried to hold you like a lover
But you broke me just like a crook
I picked up the pieces that were shattered
And I laid red roses on your door
Now it's like it never even mattered
Tell me is this all that you wanted me for
Now I'm standing here holding onto nothing
While you just smiled and walked away
Like I'm just some casual acquaintance
That you just met somewhere along the way
Just like some schoolyard crush you flattered
Till you didn't need it anymore
Now I'm left here stitching up the tatters
Tell me, is this all that you wanted me for?
I'm here with all the pieces you left scattered
Just strung out and stranded on the floor
I guess it never even mattered
Tell me, is this all that you wanted me for?
Hey!
Is this all you wanted me for?
Is this all you wanted me for?
