Pedestal
I put you up there, put you at heights you couldn't reach
Am I being unfair to ask you to do the things you preach
Don't you know you were the best of what I thought I could be?
Am I being foolish that I believed this fantasy?
I put you up there, put you at heights you couldn't reach
Am I being unfair to ask you to do the things you preach
Don't you know you were the best of what I thought I could be?
Am I being foolish that I believed this fantasy?
If you're going to let me down
Had my life crashing around me
Can I at least keep the memories?
Cause in my dreams you'd still be perfect
Yeah it takes two broken halves make it whole
It takes two pillars strong make a home
Just a fourteen year old on his own
Trying to figure things all alone
Yeah you put him down this road
Left to face the world, so cold
With a stranger's hand to hold
And now when the story's told
He put you up there, put you at heights you never reached
Is he being unfair to ask you to do the things you preached
Don't you know you were the best of what he thought he could be?
Is he being foolish that he believed this fantasy
And I put you up there, put you at heights you couldn't reach
Am I being unfair to ask you to do the things you preach
Don't you know you were the best of what I thought I could be?
Am I being foolish that I believed this fantasy?
If you're going to let me down (If you're going to let me down please let me down gently)
Had my life crashing around me (Trying to pick up the pieces, pick it up)
Can I at least keep the memories (Give me something to hold on)
Cause in my dreams you'd still be perfect
You'd still be perfect, oh yeah
Am I being unfair to ask you to do the things you preach
Don't you know you were the best of what I thought I could be?
Am I being foolish that I believed this fantasy?
I put you up there, put you at heights you couldn't reach
Am I being unfair to ask you to do the things you preach
Don't you know you were the best of what I thought I could be?
Am I being foolish that I believed this fantasy?
If you're going to let me down
Had my life crashing around me
Can I at least keep the memories?
Cause in my dreams you'd still be perfect
Yeah it takes two broken halves make it whole
It takes two pillars strong make a home
Just a fourteen year old on his own
Trying to figure things all alone
Yeah you put him down this road
Left to face the world, so cold
With a stranger's hand to hold
And now when the story's told
He put you up there, put you at heights you never reached
Is he being unfair to ask you to do the things you preached
Don't you know you were the best of what he thought he could be?
Is he being foolish that he believed this fantasy
And I put you up there, put you at heights you couldn't reach
Am I being unfair to ask you to do the things you preach
Don't you know you were the best of what I thought I could be?
Am I being foolish that I believed this fantasy?
If you're going to let me down (If you're going to let me down please let me down gently)
Had my life crashing around me (Trying to pick up the pieces, pick it up)
Can I at least keep the memories (Give me something to hold on)
Cause in my dreams you'd still be perfect
You'd still be perfect, oh yeah
