Pedestal

He built himself a dream Yet he still called out for more You were there to watch his fall From that pedestal And first impressions Aren't always what they seem When you first appeared to him in a dream That lemon sugar rim Sure leaves a bittersweet harmony to sing Call it the ballad of what you will And of his misunderstanding You said he wanted more than he would ever get And yes he got more More than he ever bargained for So he lives life today Knowing less is more in every way Now that he can see that So crystal clearly And it is he that he has come to know Now he don't stand on no Pedestal It lies broken with the scythe
