I've been put on a high pedestal
I need to stay on that high pedestal
have to show everyone how perfect I am
perfection is what I need to be
I've been put on this high pedestal
and I don't want it
I want to be able to fail
and I cant
because I am on that high pedastal
but, but
with you I feel like I can fail
I feel like I can enjoy myself and not care
Being with you is like I can finally be  
be someone with no high expectations of themselves
its like I can finally take a breath and relax
with you, my whole world stops
and I don't have to fight to be on top.
