Expendable

[Verse]

You never ask how I’m doing when you call (11)

I play it your way or it’s no way at all (11)

I carry the burden while you go on your own (12)

But when I need help, I find that I am alone (11)

Put two and two together and then look around (12)

You’ll notice that there’s no one found (10)

See how I give everyone my heart (10)

Just to replace what was ripped apart (9)

 

[Pre-Chorus]

Keep saying everything is fine (8)

Every “fine” is blurring the line (8)

 

[Chorus]

You say you’re only human (7)

Yet I’m expendable (7)

You’re saying that you need me (7)

But won’t catch me when I fall (7)

Say you need me in your life (7)

Trap me in your lie (7)

Cause I’m expendable (6) 

 

[Verse]

With you, it’s like listening to my least favorite song (13)

It’s so familiar but it goes on way too long (12)

Maybe I’ll change the station and leave this behind (12)

And hope I’ll settle on some real peace of mind (11)

Is it really that bad being alone? (10)

Tell me am I just a second choice (9)

Picked me up, talked me back off that ledge, (9)

Then forced to follow you instead. (9)

 

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

When I’m all by myself (6)

Would you even realize, I’m not by your side (11)

I’ve gone through this hell too many (8)

Times (1)

 

[Chorus]

[Outro]

I wish (2)

Oh I wish you could know (6)

How it feels to be (5)

Expendable (4)

Title: Expendable

 

Writer: Juliana Tanico

 

Concept: In the song the singer shares how there’s an idea of hope and how they feel that this new person was going to be better than those, they met in the past, only to find out that they were completely wrong, and now questions how important they truly are to those around them.
