Lyrics
Pedestals
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Overthought, and meaningless.
You’ve destroyed everything I thought was sacred.
Burn them, and sell whats left of them
Nothing is worth this, and I hope you realize what you’ve done.
You have stolen every bit of this.
Hold this in, you’re destroying this world.
I swear this is all on me, and one day you’ll see.
These pedestals you make, they are no figure to be praised.
You put value in the wrong, I cant bare these changes.
When will you pay for this?
Trade your heart for fame.
Trade your mind for a piece of heaven.
I put this too far away from me
Trade your mind for a piece of heaven,
Trade that heart for fame.
I can't bare to see these changes you put yourself through.
You put value in the wrong,
I can't bare these changes.
When will you pay for this?
Trade your heart for fame.
Trade your mind for a piece of heaven.
These pedestals, they are no figure to be praised.
There is no hope for this.
Pray for me.
I have found honor in the lowest of places.
Hold this in, you're destroying this world.
I swear this is all on me.
I will never see this light.
I sent myself here.
It’s still pretty hard for me to understand how you can put your
beliefs to such shame. (beliefs to such shame)
It gets harder to realize, where we stand, I can never see the light.
One day you’ll see these pedestals, they are no figures to be praised.
Trade your mind for a piece of heaven,
Trade that heart for fame.
I can't bare to see these changes you put yourself through.
And I need to learn to walk away when things get down.
You get your head wrapped around all the wrong values.
I can feel your grip failing.
These voices are falling short.
Selling every part of me.
Everything we know is ending.
This world is dying.
