PedestalCounterpartsThe Current Will Carry Us I’m looking back on those I once looked up to, and I can’t helpbut feel that I’m looking down. Everyone I’ve ever admired has left me withnothing. Not even a memory. I remember growing up, and yearning to be just likeyou. It pains me to admit that I held you in such a high regard, as if my lifewould mean nothing without your approval. But now I see the error of my ways.All that time spent searching for myself in someone else. I think it’s safe tosay that I’ve become everything I wanted to be. And no one can take that fromme. All of my heroes have failed me, but I won’t ever fail myself. I can’tbelieve how naive I used to be when I never really needed anyone. All of myheroes have failed me, but I won’t ever fail myself.
