In a candid exploration of the pressures of idolization, this song delves into the disillusionment that arises when individuals are placed on pedestals. The lyrics convey a poignant message about the fallibility of those who are often idealized as heroes or saviors. The narrator emphasizes their own humanity and imperfections, urging listeners to place their faith in something more substantial than flawed beings. The repeated refrain "I'm not your superhuman" underscores the unrealistic expectations imposed upon them. Furthermore, the song reflects on the collective struggle with self-worth and the importance of preserving one's inner light amidst darkness 🌟. Ultimately, it serves as a reminder that no one is infallible, and seeking perfection in others can lead to inevitable disappointment 😔.
Idle Worship
Lyrics
Standing here like I'm supposed to say something
Don't hold your breath, I never said I'd save you, honey
And I don't want your money
If I was you I'd run from me or
Rip me open you'll see you're not the only one who's hopeless
Be sure to put your faith in something more
I'm just a girl and you're not as alone as you feel
We all got problems, don't we?
We all need heroes, don't we?
But rest assured there's not a single person here who's worthy
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Don't let me let you down
Hey, baby I'm not your superhuman
And if that's what you want
I hate to let you down
I got your hopes up
Now I got you hoping
That I'm gonna be the one that let you down
Oh, it's such a long and awful lonely fall
Down from this pedestal that you keep putting me on
What if I fall on my face?
What if I make a mistake?
If it's okay a little grace would be appreciated
Remember how we used to like ourselves?
What little light that's left, we need to keep it sacred
I know that you're afraid to let all the dark escape you
But we could let the light illuminate these hopeless places
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Just let me let you down
Hey, baby I'm not your superhuman
And if that's what you want
I hate to let you down
I got your hopes up
Now I got you hoping
That I'm gonna be the one that let you down
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Oh, no, I ain't your hero
You're wasting all your faith on me
Oh, no, I know where this goes
Think it's safe to say your savior doesn't look a thing like me
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Don't let me let you down
Hey, baby I'm not your superhuman
And if that's what you want
I hate to let you down
I got your hopes up
Now I got you hoping
That I'm gonna be the one that let you down
Hey, baby I'm not your superhuman
And if that's what you want
I hate to let you down
I got your hopes up
Now I got you hoping
That I'm gonna be the one that let you down
