Pedestal (feat. Chris Zuehlke)

I really wanna forget what it means to be in your shoes
Because God knows I've tried so many times and I failed to

I'm not gonna turn out the way I wanted to
I forced me to blame me for not being you and

For a long time I thought
You have everything I'd ever need
But now it turns out I just
Saw what's only meant to be for me

I've learnt you got your problems
Just like everybody else in here
And I've learned being honest
Means finally being carefree

It's not as it seems
You're only ever seeing their dreams
It is never as it seems to be
So don't be putting 'em on a pedestal

I really wanna know what it means to be my very own self
Because God knows I've tried so many times without success

There's false focus, don't ever dare be mundane
And all the shots to refocus were all in vain
Still I think that I can be whatever
I don't need you to agree

For a long time I thought
You have everything I'd ever need
But now it turns out I just
Saw what's only meant to be for me

I've learnt you got your problems (you got your problems)
Just like everybody else in here
And I've learned being honest (being honest, being carefree)
Means finally being carefree

It's not as it seems
You're only ever seeing their dreams
It is never as it seems to be
So don't be putting 'em on a pedestal

Make your dreams come true
Trust your gut, pursue
The path you've chosen for yourself
Don’t be anybody else
