I was thinking 'bout my troubles this morning

Trying to decide if I should live or die

I forgot to leave a note on the mailbox so

Said I hope that you forget to come by

I'd wasted time to tell myself

It's wrong to leave you by yourself

The love I have does not exceed

The fear I have of you when you need someone to plead

With you to try again

And beg you not to cry in vain and be your friend

Why is it me? Why is it me? Why is it me now?



I was never meant to carry the burden

Keeping track of someone else's life as my own

How can I enjoy the time when I'm with you when

I'm afraid to ever leave you alone

I wish you'd stop this game or else

Begin to lean on someone else

I'd like to leave you far behind

Before I'm found in your state of mind

Because I need to lead a life of my own

I wish you'd find somebody else and leave me alone

Why bother me? Why bother me? Why bother me now
