Birds Of Tokyo Pedestal Lyrics

To put me on a pedestal
Treat me like the shallow fool I am
I spun around a crowded room
I never heard a single word you said

Put me on a pedestal
Treat me like the shallow fool I am
I'm caught between the moon and sun
Underneath your every move I am, always

Don't wash away
Don't wash away again
Don't wash away again
la da da da...

Tell me that I'm not the cause
Tell me that I'm everything to you, to you
This feeling every day it swells
As I try to breathe, I try to yell for help, for help

I'm living through a broken heart
Underneath your every spell I am
So put me on a pedestal
Treat me like the sorry fool I am, always

Don't wash away
Don't wash away again
Don't wash away again

The silence between you and I
I look for the strength in myself
I know it's the truth, but you

Burn me out, you leave me dry
Drown my fears, blow my mind You leave me so I fool myself

The silence between you and I
I look for the strength in myself
I know it's the truth in your eyes
I know it's the scene that I cannot stand

I'm falling further, from this murmur
Falling through strange things I've not heard of
Now I should be, I should be there instead

I'm falling further, from this murder
Falling through strange things I've not heard of
Now I should be, I should be there instead

And you burn me out, you leave me dry
Drown my fears, blow my mind
You leave me so I fool myself

The silence between you and I
I look for the strength in myself
I know it's the truth in your eyes
I know it's the scene that I cannot stand

The silence between you and I, yeah darlin
I look for the strength in myself
I know it's the truth in your eyes, yeah darlin
I know it's the scene that I cannot stand
