[Verse 1]
I've been thinking lately
If it would be better
If I just disappeared
If I wasn't right here

[Verse 2]
I've been thinking lately
Was it that hard to love me?
All I asked was to hold me
All you did was ignore me

[Chorus]
Would your world be less of its burden
If I wasn't here to tire you out?
Would it hurt to ask you to listen
Or would you rather I keep my voice down?
I've just been thinking lately
Would you feel better if I wasn't around?

[Verse 3]
They think the world's at my feet
But I keep sinking underneath
Under the bathroom sink while you chose to sleep
And I left the thing without you was happy
[Chorus]
Would your world be less of its burden
If I wasn't here to tire you out?
Would it hurt to ask you to listen
Or would you rather I keep my voice down?
I've just been thinking lately
Would you feel better if I wasn't around?
If I wasn't around

[Bridge]
I pulled myself together
Though we could get better
But every time I tried, I found myself deep in the water
I thought you pulled me closer
But you left and held another
I stayed because you and I, we looked so good on paper
It's not worth it anymore
Five years alone on a bathroom floor

[Chorus]
Would our world be less of its burden
If you weren't here to watch it burn down?
Would it hurt you if just a for a second
You thought of me before you chose to go out?
Now getting back on my feet
You can no longer haunt me
I've been just thinking lately
If wouldn't be better if you weren't around
