Content
The singer complains about the advice of friends, who seem to have made it "their appointed duty" to talk the singer out of a romantic relationship that they see as one-sided, and where the singer is "used". But the singer has no doubt in wanting things to continue as they are, and implies that it is pleasurable enough to be "used" in that fashion that being "used up" completely would be welcome.

Use Me
by: Tina DickowSo you've messed it up
Don't know when to stop
Said more than enough
I've touched you where it hurts
And I know I'm not the first
But please don't make it worse
Don't be so hard on yourself
Take it out on someone else
Say my name anyway you please
Use me
Look me in the eye
I'd love to see you smile
And I know how hard you try
Don't be so hard on yourself
Take it out on someone else
Say my name anyway you please
In the morning
You'll see a different side
In the morning
A softer light
In the morning
It will all look right
And you won't have to hide
Don't be so hard on yourself
Take it out on someone else
Say my name anyway you please
Don't be so hard on yourself
Take it out on someone else
Say my name anyway you please
