Erase Me Songtext
von Ben Folds Five

What was our home? Paper, not stone?
A lean-to at most
And when you pulled your half away
Gravity won like it always does
Did I weigh a ton?
Would it be easier to just delete
Our pages and the plans we made?

Erase me so you don′t have to face me
Put me in the ground and mow the daisies
Ah, the memory
See how it goes when you erase me
Erase me

So what will you do with no me for you?
I know what we said, what if I left a thing or two?
We know that you don't seem to think about what you need
′Til you reach to find that you've erased me


What the fuck is this? You're crazy
Turned around in two weeks time, replaced me
Ah, the memory
Everybody knows how it goes, you just erase me
Do me like a bro and tase me
Fireworks, poof, it′s gone, amazing
New bio, you′ve gone solo
Drawing mustaches on our wedding photo
Erase me
Erase me
Erase me

Erase me, this is not shouting, baby
Erase me, go and call the cops now, baby
Ah, the memory
Everybody knows 'bout the brand new hoe
Erase me and you′ll never have to face me
Erase me, option-command-esc me
And if you feel nothing, guess what I wanna be?
Nothing
