Pedestal (Lyrics)

I’m looking back on those I once looked up to And I can’t help but feel that I’m looking down Everyone I’ve ever admired has left me with nothing, Not even a memory I remember growing up, and yearning to be just like you It pains me to admit that I held you in such a high regard, As if my life would mean nothing without your approval But now I see the error of my ways All that time spent searching for myself in someone else I think it’s safe to say that I’ve become everything I wanted to be And no one can take that from me All of my heroes have failed me, but I won’t fail myself I can’t believe how naive I used to be when I never really needed anyone All my heroes have failed me, but I won’t ever fail myself All my heroes have failed me, but I will never fail myself (All of my heroes have failed me, all of my heroes have failed me)
