Disappointment Songtext
von LEX the Lexicon Artist

I put you up upon a pedestal
When I met you
Now I′m having trouble letting go
Does that upset you
That I finally see the side
You never wanted to show
Or that I'm fed up with the lies
You didn′t want me to know

It always feels like only moments ago
Back when I had the rose tinted glasses on,
happy go lucky
I guess it only goes to show us both that passion is funny
And when attraction turns ugly it grows a soul of its own

And then the roots take hold, make a bed in the cracks
Statue's broken and there's little hope of getting it back
Overblown expectations made me see what you lacked
And all the bogus things you said to keep my feelings intact


Were in fact
Just a facade and it struck me as odd
Though you opted not to hurt me your morality′s flawed
Wish I could travel back in time to look up at you in awe
But now that facts have come to light, I′ll never see what I saw

But I'll remember how you made me feel
If only for a second I could say "it′s real"
Emotion was a weapon that you kept concealed
Left unspoken all the trauma that was yet unhealed

Caught up in the drama and the sex appeal
But the situation honestly was less ideal
Put you up too high but you're letting me down
Now I can see the sky better as I′m hitting the ground

You got put on a foundation
Laid the groundwork in my mind
Thought about you all the time
The ground became a climb
It got too high and now I'm falling
Ignored all of the signs
Such a disappointment
You are such a disappointment


Such a disappointment from the fall to the end
Looking back I can′t believe I even called you a friend
Guess I'll laugh at my naivety and folly and then
I'll think of all the crazy names you′ll never call me again

See I imagined up a future that we′d have in our heads
Well it's too bad the only future that we had was in bed
And it′s said
If the sex is impressive
Then you'll never forget it
And though it′s true I'm choosing balance instead

So I′m
Done with spending all my time and all my energy, you
Made a mess of my emotions and I'll never see you
The way I did when we first met on a whim
Cause I never would have thought that you could spread me so thin

But now I'm
Feeling better now I know that it′s done
In the moment I surrendered knew I′d already won
And if you want me back, give me a call
Cause I'd be lying if I said I wouldn′t miss you at all

You got put on a foundation
Laid the groundwork in my mind
Thought about you all the time
The ground became a climb
It got too high and now i'm falling
Ignored all of the signs
Such a disappointment
You are such a disappointment

Yeah my ego it got a little hurt
Started with a glance, led to a little flirt
Now our moments they convert into tiny specks of dirt
Lightly placed on the picture of you in your pretty shirt
Sweet like a dessert, Took a taste and went berserk
Overate now I hate your effect on my worth
Soon I′ll feel great, gotta put in the work
To review and move on, you endearing little jerk
Cuz I was so addicted, how you made me feel so
Elevated, in the matrix moving real slow
Captivated in a trance, putting on a crazy dance
To impress you, guess I wasted my heel toe
On a person who just simply wasn't a fit
Or maybe it was me who needs to grow up a bit
Cuz no one in the world is worth a pedestal, just let her go
Yup, I′m done with this shit

I looked up at you for hours
Put you up there with the stars
Pretty constellation
I admired from afar
Now the sky looks so outdated
I see you for who you are
Such a disappointment
This is such a disappointment

You got put on a foundation
Laid the groundwork in my mind
Thought about you all the time
The ground became a climb
It got too high and now i'm falling
Ignored all of the signs
Such a disappointment
You are such a disappointment
