Don't Call Me Useless
Let me be kindling for your hate
I can be the scapegoat for your insecurities
Allow me to be your martyr in the eyes of your jurors
Think about it
I could let you bleed me
I would let you beat me
I can be your object
If you took my skin I'd make a fine winter coat
Bathe in my blood and be reborn a new
Don't call me useless though
With my body there is so much to do.
