Cover art for Bleeding Out lyrics by Imagine Dragons

I think the song is talking about self-harm and suicide. I think he wants to commit suicide because he feels like he is ruining someones life. He thinks he is the reason everything is going wrong in their life. "If the last thing that I do is bring you down I'll bleed out for you" sounds like its saying "if I ruin anything else for you, I will just get rid of myself because I ruin everything" Its a very good song...but it does seem like a very depressing one.

Thats just what I think! =}

"If the last thing that I do is bring you down I'll bleed out for you"- i think that line is actually referring to how he will rather self harm and cope with pain that way rather than committing suicide because he cant die on his loved ones. He doesnt want to cause any pain to his friends and family from commiting suicide. "I will reach inside Just to find my heart is beating"- saying he will do anything to keep himself alive
