[Part I: Pedestal]
[Verse 1]
I put myself up on your shelf
You gave it all and nothing else
But no one can live up to these high expectations of mine
But that doesn't mean that you resist the temptation to try
I remember just how it felt to be loved, to be held
[Refrain]
No one can live up to these high expectations of mine
Now, I built a wall that is ten foot tall, and no man can climb
[Chorus]
I'm up high, circling around, just waiting to be let down
So, let me down
Terrified, so I pretend there's reasons for us to end
All over again
[Verse 2]
Don't act surprised when we both know
It's just the way, the way it goes
I never wanted to leave, but never needed to stay
The harder I tried to keep, the harder it was to change
[Chorus]
I'm up high, circling around, just waiting to be let down
So, let me down
Terrified, so I pretend there's reasons for us to end
All over again
