Okay, this is a song too, so it's a little long...
Pedestal
The words twist with jagged edges,
Barbed wire on their lips
Glittering silver compliments
Gravity was made to put us down
But our heart and soul work together
To make sure we're not alone
And keep us sane forever
Why so sad flower child
Cant you see there's a future ahead
you wanna be famous
be that irresistable person
have everyone be crazy for you
be recognized every where you go
you want to be that heart stopping singer or jaw dropping actor
A virgin innocence beams under the spot light, shushed as the speakers buzz. A flurry of question bury the noise and a voice rises above. A blanket of awe wraps itself around the shiny toy.
