Idle Worship

Standing here like I’m supposed to say something

Don’t hold your breath

I never said I’d save you honey

And I don’t want your money

If I’s you I’d run from me

Or rip me open

You’ll see you’re not the only one who’s hopeless

Be sure to put your faith

In something more

I’m just a girl and you’re

Not as alone as you feel

We 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 superhuman

And if that’s what you want

I hate to let you down

I got your hopes up

Now I got you hoping

But I’m gonna be the one to let you down

Oh it’s such a long and awful lonely fall

Down from this pedestal

That you keep putting me on

What 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 sacred

I know that you’re afraid to

Let all the dark escape you

But we could let the light illuminate these hopeless places

Just let me let you down

Hey baby I’m not

Your superhuman

And if that’s what you want

I hate to let you down

I got your hopes up

Now I got you hoping

But I’m gonna be the one to let you down

Oh no I ain’t your hero

You’re wasting all your faith on me

Oh no I know where this goes

Think 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 superhuman

And if that’s what you want

I hate to let you down

I got your hopes up

Now I got you hoping

But I’m gonna be the one to let you down

Hey baby I’m not

Your superhuman

And if that’s what you want

I hate to let you down

I got your hopes up

Now I got you hoping

But I’m gonna be the one to let you down
