[Intro]
mm-mm…
yeah…
maybe I take up too much space…
[Verse 1]
I learnt to make myself smaller
before anyone asked me to
say less
need less
hurt where nobody could see it
I became good at disappearing
while still standing in the room
smiling at everyone else
hoping nobody noticed me
[Pre-Chorus]
and somehow...
I still feel like too much
[Chorus]
maybe I'm just an inconvenience
the phone that nobody answers
the chair nobody sits beside
the name that slips their mind
I keep folding parts of me away
trying to fit where I never fit
and I still wonder...
if I disappeared...
would anyone notice
(...notice)
the silence
[Post-Chorus]
mm-mm…
yeah…
[Verse 2]
I carry everybody carefully
like they'll break if I don't
but nobody sees
I'm carrying myself
with shaking hands
I don't need perfect
I just wanted somewhere
that felt like home
[Pre-Chorus]
somewhere...
I didn't have to earn
[Chorus]
maybe I'm just an inconvenience
a pause in somebody else's life
always making room
never having one
I keep asking less and less
until there's almost nothing left of me
and somehow...
I'm still apologising
(I'm sorry...)
for existing
[Bridge]
tell me...
how long do you keep shrinking
before you disappear
without moving
[Chorus]
maybe I'm not an inconvenience
maybe...
I've just spent too long
believing I was
because that's what surviving taught me
and I don't know
how to unlearn it
yet
[Outro]
mm-mm...
I'm still here...
(still here...)
even if I don't know
where I belong...
