I'm sure you've enjoyed the ride, who wouldn't?I'm sure every perk has perch you up, how could it not?And every opportunity through me helped you climb, didn't it?Dropping my name, blew doors; open, now we're close beforeAnd one day, you'll see that you've never really seen meOne day, you'll find out that everythingyou dreamed of wasn't who stood before youOne day, I won't be craved the way you're craving nowAs this pedestal crumbles still and crashes me to the groundI'm sure you enjoyed my nameWho wouldn't take advantage?I'm sure you enjoyed this gameand the proxy pride that you landedAnd everything by carrying you seem to build you upAnd you grab my crown, and got everything you wantedAnd one day, you'll see that you've never really loved meOne day, you'll find out that everythingyou dreamed of wasn't who stood before youOne day, I won't be craved the way you're craving nowAs this pedestal crumbles still and crashes me to the groundYou're left with a human beingYou're left with a fallible soulOh, when the glitter fallsI'm here and sometimes average, sometimes moreWhen the glare of the lights grow dimAnd you're left with a delicate realWhen the bright lights clear, there's just me sitting hereOne day, you'll see that you've never really seen meAnd one day, you'll find out that everythingyou dreamed of wasn't who stood before youOne day, I won't be craved the way you're craving nowAs this pedestal crumbles still, as this crusty crash is doneCrashes me to the groundI'm sure you've enjoyed the ride, who wouldn't?Who wouldn't?
