While the corset lies on the bed
And I'm all hung up on a vestige
Like a secret never kept
Say it once
Say it twice
Say it never again
Won't you come back down from the pedestal
I could drink your wine from the back of my mind
And I know you're never lonely
When your back's to the wall
But the wall's been coming down
Saw a life that could've been
Had it all come back for a second
Like a joker on the deck
Fool me once
Fool me twice
Fool me never again
Won't you come back down from the pedestal
I can waste my time while you douse your mind
And I know you think you loved me
But you didn't at all
'Cause you're already coming down
Funny I believed in a miracle
Now I get the joke, it's hysterical
Constellations lining
The backs of my eyelids know
The archetype for all the ones
I keep sending home all alone
So can't you come back down from the pedestal
I could waste my days on the side of the stage
Where I'll be wishing that I listened
When they told me to stop
Cause I knew then
I know it now
Yeah I knew then
I know it now
Yeah I knew then
I know it now
