Pedestal
Shattered Illusions: Chloe Stroll's Pedestal Unveiled
Lyrics
You were just like a saint in my eyes
You were admired and revered like a saint in my perspective.
You showered me in gold
You bestowed me with abundant love and attention, symbolized by "gold."
You had Superman strength in my mind
In my thoughts, you possessed strength comparable to Superman.
And that's the reason why
This admiration is the cause for my current feeling of loneliness.
I've never felt so alone
Despite the positive image, I've never felt this isolated.
Cuz you slipped through my hands
You eluded my grasp like trying to hold onto quicksand.
Like holding quicksand
I constructed a foundation based on this elusive connection.
And I build a foundation on it
The foundation was built on something unstable.
I guess perfect doesn't really exist
Realization that perfection is not attainable.
I guess perfect doesn't really exist
Reiteration that perfection is an unrealistic expectation.
I hope and I prayed
I expressed hope and prayed for positive outcomes.
Loved them I hate
Experiencing both love and hate, emotions that shaped the foundation.
And build a foundation on it
Building a foundation on a combination of love and hate.
I guess Perfect doesn't really exists
Confirming the non-existence of perfection.
Noo, Perfect doesn't realt exist
Emphasizing that perfection is an illusion.
I put you up on a pedestal
You were elevated to an idealized position in my life.
Soo high up and watched you fall
Despite being placed on a pedestal, you fell and shattered into a million pieces.
Into a milllion pieces
The aftermath of the fall resulted in brokenness.
i thought you were stronger
I believed you were stronger than the reality of your fall.
I thought you were stronger
Reiteration of the belief in the person's strength.
Did you pull the wool over my eyes
Questioning if deception played a role in the perception of the person.
Did you think that I wouldn't know
Wondering if the person thought they could deceive without detection.
Is there even a place in your heart
Questioning if there is any remorse or realization of crossing boundaries in the person's heart.
To notice that you've gone too far
Reflecting on the realization that the person has gone too far.
Now you can't fix what you broke
Emphasizing that the damage caused is irreversible.
