Cover art for Erase Me lyrics by Ben Folds Five

I tried to edit the lyrics, but apparently they were overridden. This is my interpretation, which is not perfect, but closer in a number of spots.

"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 to 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 taze 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, this is not shouting baby Erase me, go and call the cops now baby Ah, the memory, everybody knows But the brand new home Erase me, and you'll never have to face me Erase me, I'm sure you can escape me And if you feel nothing Guess what I wanna be?"
