Pedestal

Used to be the shit
With the boys back in middle school
But they could never commit
Put those boys on a pedestal
They're way too good for all this

Whatever they say is what goes
Who cares what you know
You listen

And it's on you if they cross any lines
Or you miss all the signs
They decide when

It would be nice to be wanted
Someone to blow up my phone
Make me whole
And just hold me
Like nobody's watching
Never make any excuses
Misuses
The truth is

It's easier when someone cares
Bad days, been played, they're always there
But that's not for you
Got more growing to do

I've grown out of this shit
Left the boys back in middle school
They could never commit
Put myself on a pedestal
I'm way too good for all this

Whatever I say is what goes
Who cares what they know
This is my skin

I've retraced all the lines
And made neon signs
I decide when

It would be nice to be wanted
Someone to blow up my phone
Make me whole
And just hold me
Like nobody's watching
Never make any excuses
Misuses
The truth is

It's easier when someone cares
Bad days, been played, they're always there
But that's not for you
Got more growing to do

I can do everything right
Black and white
And still be in the wrong

There's no how-to when you're used
And accused
You gotta just stay strong

I feel like I'm required
To tell you how you feel
I'm just fucking tired
It's not a big deal

It would be nice to be wanted
Someone to blow up my phone
Make me whole
And just hold me
Like nobody's watching
Never make any excuses
Misuses
The truth is

It's easier when someone cares
Bad days, been played, they're always there
But that's not for you
Got more growing to do
