Pedestal

Wax rose petals for fingers
Stained glass windows for eyes
Folded paper for a heart
You may say I'm living a lie

Golden twine for curls
Sprinkled cinnamon on skin
With the voice of an angel
Do you even know who I am?

I guess
I'm loud and I'm funny
I'm charming, you might think I'm fine
I'm pretty and successful
I'm kind and useful
But dig a little deeper

Take me off your fucking pedestal
I know I've been through more than you
But that doesn't mean you can use my story
Take me off your fucking pedestal
I'm not the one to live for you
I'm sorry darling, that's gotta be you
I've got my own shit to get through
Ooh
Ooh

Rosé stained lips, will speak the truth
Sometimes, you'll miss, what's painted in the lines
Of the image your building
A pillar I can't seem to fall from

I'm loud and I'm funny
I'm charming, I think you think I'm fine
I'm pretty and successful
I'm kind and useful
But dig a little deeper

Take me off your fucking pedestal
I know I've been through more than you
But that doesn't mean you can use my story
Take me off your fucking pedestal
I'm not the one to live for you
I'm sorry darling, that's gotta be you
I've got my own shit to get through

I'm loud and I'm funny
I'm charming, I think you think I'm fine
I'm pretty and successful
I'm kind and useful
But dig a little deeper

Take me off your fucking pedestal
I know I've been through more than you
But that doesn't mean you can use my story
Take me off your fucking pedestal
I'm not the one to live for you
I'm sorry darling, that's gotta be you
I've got my own shit to get through
