I’d feel so relieved if you were dead
a sentiment no one wants in his head
but it’s true and though I’d grieve you
so many worries would disappear

what will I do when you are gone?
I’ll have to move on with no excuses
for my failure
just my own ineptitude

life can boil down to next to nothing
and when it does, how do you pick it up
and make it back into something?

I saw you nearly every day
sometimes you noticed
other times you were far away

once in a while when you didn’t
pick up the phone
I had a moment
when I thought you were gone

life can boil down to next to nothing
and when it does, how do you pick it up
and make it back into something?

when everything you thought you’d left behind
is all that you ever have on your mind
you can’t escape what really matters
there’s no way around

I’d feel so relieved if you were dead
a sentiment no one wants in his head
but it’s true
