Original Broadway Cast - A Little Bit Less Than (Feat. Sierra Boggess)

Easy to do

That's what they say

Why are you waiting to



Pick up the phone

Blast off a text

Stop this debating

The people you love

They need to know

Don't even try

You can't defend it


Telling my Mom

Seeing the look

That's what I'm dreading

And don't forget Dad started to cry

Announcing my wedding

Just saying the words

Shatters their dream

What if I'm not


Able to mend it


But I know the longer I wait

The harder it gets

So try to stick to the plan

Be true to myself

I'll have no regrets


Still I keep feeling they'll think

I'm just a little bit less than


If they don't ask

And I don't tell

They miss the best of me

When I deny

Part of my life

I risk the rest of me

Sure, I can pass


Keep up the show

Deep down I know

It's time to end it


And the longer I wait

The harder it gets

So time to stick to the plan


Be true to myself

I'll have no regrets

Don't be afraid that they'll think

I'm just a little bit less than


Strangers I meet

Friends from before

Step to the edge

Walk through the door


No one is gonna stop me anymore

Silence isn't golden

Speak up right away

Bring those surprises to light

You know a life built on lies is just not right


The longer you wait

The harder it gets

To tell them

The more you pretend

The more they've a right to condemn

Be true to yourself

You'll have no regrets

If you believe you can

Announce it by decree

Let loose

Tell all

Be free

If I don't

I'll really be

A little bit less than
