Idle Worship
Standing here like I’m supposed to say somethingDon’t hold your breath, I never said I’d save you, honeyAnd I don’t want your money - if I’s you, I’d run from me or rip me openYou’ll see you’re not the only one who’s hopeless
Be sure to put your faith in something moreI’m just a girl and you’re not as alone as you feelWe all got problems, don’t we? We all need heroes, don’t we?But rest assured, there’s not a single person here who’s worthy
Don’t let me let you down
Hey baby, I’m not your superhumanAnd if that’s what you want, I hate to let you downI got your hopes up, now I got you hopingBut I’m gonna be the one to let you down
Oh, it’s such a long and awful lonely fallDown from this pedestal that you keep putting me onWhat if I fall on my face? What if I make a mistake?If it’s okay, a little grace would be appreciated
Remember how we used to like ourselves?What little light that’s left, we need to keep it sacredI know that you’re afraid to let all the dark escape youBut we could let the light illuminate these hopeless places
Just let me let you down
Hey baby, I’m not your superhumanAnd if that’s what you want, I hate to let you downI got your hopes up, now I got you hopingBut I’m gonna be the one to let you down
Oh no, I ain’t your heroYou’re wasting all your faith on meOh no, I know where this goesThink it’s safe to say your savior doesn’t look a thing like me
Don’t let me let you down
Hey baby, I’m not your superhumanAnd if that’s what you want, I hate to let you downI got your hopes up, now I got you hopingBut I’m gonna be the one to let you down
