pedestal

lyrics

while the corset lies on the bed
and i'm all hung up on a vestige
like a secret never kept
say it once say it twice
say it never again

won't you come back down from the pedestal
i could drink your wine in the back of my mind
and i know you're never lonely
when your back's to the wall
but the wall's been coming down

saw the life that could've been
had it all come back for a second
like the joker in the deck
fool me once fool me twice
fool me never again

won't you come back down from the pedestal
i can waste my time while you douse your mind
and i know you think you loved me
but you didn't at all
cause you're already coming down

funny i believed in a miracle
now i get the joke it's hysterical
constellations lining the backs of my eyelids know
the archetype for all the ones
i keep sending home all alone

so can't you come back down from the pedestal
i could waste my days on the side of the stage
where i'll be wishing that i listened
when they told me to stop
cause i knew then i know it now
yeah i knew then i know it now
