[Verse 1] I don't know why you're still here.
You should leave while you still can,
For we both know too well, my dear,
Just the way I am.
And I'm not all I could be,
So I'm lucky that you hate yourself.
What you swear is your love for me is
Your private hell.

[Chorus] What do you see
When you look at me?
Do you know how much I wish I could be someone else?
And you don't believe
That you can't save me.
Well darling, just put me on the shelf

[Verse 2] And it's not that I want you here,
But I need you more than you can know,
You can know.
Let me fill you with me jealous fear
Until you're nothing at all.

[Chorus] What do you see
When you look at me?
Do you know how much I wish I could be someone else?
And you don't believe
That you can't save me.
Well darling, just put me on the shelf

[Chorus 3] What do you see
When you look at me?
Do you know how much I wish I could be someone else?
And you don't believe
That you can't save me…

[Refrain] But I won't lie, (no, I won't lie)
You shouldn't try (you shouldn't try)
I think it's time that you let it die! (some things should die)
Then you might find that you
Have the time
To try and save yourself
Save yourself
You should save yourself
Yeah, save yourself.
