Worthless Lyrics
And tell me where we go from this point
I didn't see him bring you down
It seems like yesterday
I had seen you
I tried so hard just to say your name
And I'd rather die than disappoint you
For me to be free from me, I must be free from you
Remember the times I sat on your lap
The way you'd always touch my knees
It seems like yesterday I was fading
I feel your hands still touch my face
And all I wanted from you was to love me
For me to be free from you, I must be free from...
(Chorus)
Me!
But now you fade away
You're all I was before
But now you fade away
Your eyes I once adored
But now you fade away
Give me one last kiss before,
Before you fade away
You're all I have anymore
Blood pressure starts to rise
Within these closed-in places
Feels like the Son of God just reached out and grabbed me
I never seen you smile
In all your million faces
You haven't tears enough for what you've done for me
Oh God, why?..
Blood pressure starts to rise
Within these closed-in places
Feels like the Son of God reached out and grabbed me
I never seen you smile
In all your million faces
You haven't tears enough for what you've done...
(Chorus)
But now you fade away
You're all I was before
But now you fade away
Your eyes I once adored
But now you fade away
Give me one last kiss before,
Before you fade away
You're all I have anymore
Why did you fade?
Blood pressure fades away
Why did you fade away?
Feels like the Son of God just reached out and grabbed me
I never fade away
Why did you fade away?
You haven't tears enough for what you've done to me
Blood pressure fades away
Why did you make me stay?
Feels like the Son of God just reached out and grabbed me
I never fade away
I just needed to say
You haven't tears enough for what you've done...
I didn't see him bring you down
It seems like yesterday
I had seen you
I tried so hard just to say your name
And I'd rather die than disappoint you
For me to be free from me, I must be free from you
The way you'd always touch my knees
It seems like yesterday I was fading
I feel your hands still touch my face
And all I wanted from you was to love me
For me to be free from you, I must be free from...
Me!
But now you fade away
You're all I was before
But now you fade away
Your eyes I once adored
But now you fade away
Give me one last kiss before,
Before you fade away
You're all I have anymore
Within these closed-in places
Feels like the Son of God just reached out and grabbed me
I never seen you smile
In all your million faces
You haven't tears enough for what you've done for me
Within these closed-in places
Feels like the Son of God reached out and grabbed me
I never seen you smile
In all your million faces
You haven't tears enough for what you've done...
But now you fade away
You're all I was before
But now you fade away
Your eyes I once adored
But now you fade away
Give me one last kiss before,
Before you fade away
You're all I have anymore
Why did you fade?
Why did you fade away?
Feels like the Son of God just reached out and grabbed me
I never fade away
Why did you fade away?
You haven't tears enough for what you've done to me
Blood pressure fades away
Why did you make me stay?
Feels like the Son of God just reached out and grabbed me
I never fade away
I just needed to say
You haven't tears enough for what you've done...

This song has no comments .. and its one of the best from this band .. I really feel what the lyrics are saying but I cant put them in words ..
I think it's about a parent that was either abusive, or just didn't care (a parent rather than a romantic relationship, because really, how many guys sit on their girlfriends' laps?). "I'd rather die than disappoint you", "all I wanted from you was to love me" -- he just wanted their approval and love, and he didn't get it. "For me to be free from you, I must be free from me" -- he has to get away from them and stop trying to please them to live his own life and be happy.
"Feels like your Son of God just reached out and grabbed me" (until the very end it says "your", not "the", which has an entirely different meaning) -- makes me think that religion was involved somehow. He didn't believe in their religion, or maybe he did something that was against it.
Saw these guys live last weekend, and when they did this song they changed the line "It seems like yesterday I was fading" to "It seems like yesterday that you raped me", which definitely changes the tone of the song for me. I could almost see it being about him being sexually abused as a child, but certain lyrics don't make sense. ("Give me one last kiss" doesn't seem like something you'd say to someone who molested you.) Either way, live it's definitely a very, very angry, emotionally charged song.
