Pedestal

 Don't put me on a pedestal

I'm a statue, don't you know

Look I'm not perfect,

Nobody is,

You think I have stature, but I truly can fracture

And break

And the cracks appear, on the surface veneer

The mirror shines lacquer black

And if you look in my soul's looking back

So don't put me on a pedestal, won't you
