Knock Him Off His Pedestal
Hey girl, I know you’ve been feeling blue
For believing that he really wanted you
Instead he hurt you after he was through
Now you need to knock him off his pedestal
Hey girl, I know you gave it all
But your soft heart took the fall
When he pushed you away and put up his wall
But you must knock him off his pedestal
Hey girl, I know you dreamt for more
When he acted like loving you was a chore
You can’t be chasing him anymore
Best for you to knock him off his pedestal
Hey girl, I know you tried to understand
Why he crossed that line and you took a stand
Asking for respect isn’t a huge demand
You gotta knock him off his pedestal
Hey girl, let go of the thief who steals your joy
Who cranked you up high like a spinning toy
As you caught feelings for this little boy
A firm push will knock him off his pedestal
Hey girl, you let him control your heart
He’s hiding again and you must depart
Self-love is now your journey to start
As you watch him fall off his pedestal
