Up on a pedestal

[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
