Lyrics Pedestals - From Atlantis

Pedestals

Overthought, and meaningless
You’ve destroyed everything I thought was sacred
Burn them, and sell whats left of them
Nothing is worth this, and I hope you realize what you’ve done
You have stolen every bit of this
Hold this in, you’re destroying this world
I swear this is all on me, and one day you’ll see
These pedestals you make, they are no figure to be praised
You put value in the wrong, I can’t bare these changes
When will you pay for this?
Trade your heart for fame
Trade your mind for a piece of heaven
I put this too far away from me
Trade your mind for a piece of heaven
Trade that heart for fame
I can’t bare to see these changes you put yourself through
You put value in the wrong
I can’t bare these changes
When will you pay for this?
Trade your heart for fame
Trade your mind for a piece of heaven
These pedestals, they are no figure to be praised
There is no hope for this
Pray for me
I have found honor in the lowest of places
Hold this in, you’re destroying this world
I swear this is all on me
I will never see this light
I sent myself here
It’s still pretty hard for me to understand how you can put your
Beliefs to such shame.
(beliefs to such shame)
It gets harder to realize, where we stand, I can never see the light
One day you’ll see these pedestals, they are no figures to be praised
Trade your mind for a piece of heaven
Trade that heart for fame
I can’t bare to see these changes you put yourself through
And I need to learn to walk away when things get down
You get your head wrapped around all the wrong values
I can feel your grip failing
These voices are falling short
Selling every part of me
Everything we know is ending
This world is dying
