Withdrawal bleeds are normally lighter than menstrual bleeds.
Hormonal Birth Control like the combination pill works to suppress your menstrual cycles to stop ovulation, thus as you no longer ovulate you no longer menstruate either. The bleeding you experience on the pill is a withdrawal bleed that results from the hormone drop when you go from active to inactive pills. As well as stopping ovulation the pill prevents secondary uterine lining build-up, with less uterine lining it means less material is lost during the withdrawal bleed than what you'd see during menstruation when you're off the pill.
