[PEDESTAL — FINAL STRUCTURE (Metal, stage-ready)]
(Verse 1 — ultra-tight / scream-ready)
Tired —
I rest my head
against your lap,
I tilt my ear to hear
you feed my ego
from a different angle
this time
You reach out
but we let go
When there’s no room for me
Up on your pedestal.
You can't mend
What's been bent to fit
You can’t fix
what’s already been broken.
[Verse 2 — (tightened / rhythm-ready)]
No room.
No place.
No air to breathe
in your altered space.
No love.
No light.
Just your shading
My light
You don’t love me —
you love the power,
you love the silence,
you love when I am small
(Scream)
Will you be ready
When your kingdom falls
You'll look me in my face
As it all begins to fall into place
Will you be ready
When your kingdom falls
[Breakdown —( scream / chant potential)]
NO ROOM
NO PLACE
NO AIR
YOUR SHADOW
MY LIGHT
NOT SMALL
NOT YOURS
YOUR. KINGDOM.
FALLS.
No room.
No air.
No space to breathe up there.
No room.
No light.
[Pre-Chorus 2 —(scream-ready)]
You told me I was worthy
while you looked down on me.
If this is heaven
I don't want the keys
If this is heaven
Don't let me in
