Pedestal

Pedestal

Alanis Morissette

I’m sure you’ve enjoyed the ride
Who wouldn’t?
I’m sure every perk has perked you up
How could it not?
And every opportunity through me, helped you climb
Didn’t it?
Dropping my name blew doors open that were closed before

And one day you’ll see that you’ve never really seen me
One day you’ll find out that everything
You dreamed of wasn’t who stood before you
One day I won’t be craved the way you crave me now
As this pedestal crumbles down
And crashes me to the ground

I’m sure you enjoyed my name
Who wouldn’t take advantage?
I’m sure you enjoyed this game in the proxy pride that you landed
And everything vicarious seemed to build you up

And you grabbed my crown
And got everything you wanted

And one day you’ll see that you’ve never really loved me
One day you’ll find out that everything
You dreamed of wasn’t who stood before you
One day I won’t be craved the way you crave me now
As this pedestal crumbles down
And crashes me to the ground

You’re left with a human being
You’re left with a fallible soul
Oh, when the glitter falls
I’m here, I’m sometimes average.. Sometimes more
When the glare of our lights go dim
And you’re left with a delicate rim
When the bright lights clear there’s just me sitting here

And one day you’ll see that you’ve never really seen me
One day you’ll find out that everything
You dreamed of wasn’t who stood before you
One day I won’t be craved the way you crave me now
As this pedestal crumbles down
As this pedestal crashes down
Crashes me to the ground

I hope you enjoyed the ride
Who wouldn’t?
Who wouldn’t?
