The Used - Let It Bleed Meaning

Let It Bleed Lyrics
I broke the needle off in my skin
Picked the scabs and picked the bleeding
And assumed that it was all in vain
A positive scab that's never healing
Calloused hit me in the face
A burning bridge that's so...

The song means that if you feel as if cutting or drug use is the only way out to feeling alive or important, then take the blood for what it is worth. If you're bleeding it represents not only that your injured but all bad things heal.. over time.
