Pedestals Lyrics

Got a broken clock, a time wasting mind
Some would say I'm beginning to crack
Playing no regrets on twisted frets
With the sun on down on my crooked back
Need a way that don't slide and a coin to decide
If I'm anxious or ready to go
Gonna need an axe and an iron hand and good luck
Out in the world you know

Don't build me up you can't knock me down
Don't build me up you can't knock me down

Thought I'd run for the money with lead in my shoes
Till desire was out done by the drag
Went from choir in the streets wearing many defeats
To the sound of defiance let out of the bag
Tried to carve out my name in some poisonous oak
I choked when I saw what it read
Gonna need an ace and magnolia tears
Gunning for the skin to shed

Don't build me up you can't knock me down
Don't build me up you can't knock me down

So enthused I was moved to assume my position
Wrote my thesis before I could walk
With a scratch on my bat thinking that was that
I waited for my turn to talk
Need a guide less friendly than I could've known
Instead of leading my dreams to the cliffs
Gonna take what's mine, try and fuel the fire
I can't sit on the side lines like this

Don't build me up you can't knock me down
Don't build me up you can't knock me down

So with the keys to the wagon and a full tank of pride
Sipping battery acid and gin
Smoking pre-rolled Virginias to cover the grass
Up in knots that I tied myself in
Need to rethink my reasons and stop getting lost
There's no light but it's not what it seems
Gonna tell a real good tale full to the brim
Of days obsessed by the dreams

Don't build me up you can't knock me down
Don't build me up you can't knock me down
