It would be the same, but without living organisms. Except that, I presume that whatever objective statements were true will remain true since you didn't specify otherwise.

Since evaluation for truth is applied merely to the objective implications of your subjective statements, it would be wrong to say that your subjective statements would be false if you didn't exist.
