Pedestal Lyrics in English Silvina Moreno , Ximena Sariñana

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Pedestal by Silvina Moreno from Spanish to English.
When I let go
That's when you appeared
When I remembered
That's when you chose me
When I brought you down
From that so unreal pedestal
The one that I built
With so many years of loneliness, loneliness, loneliness
All that I want is to forget
All that fear that hurt me so badly
When I saw you come out of there
And I knew that no longer
It would no longer be
The same life
And it's that I saw you come out of there
And I knew that no longer
It would no longer be
The same life
I faded
Covering with my hand
All that light
From a summer sun
Time the healer
Sings the truth like a nightingale
It wasn't that bad
She wasn't my enemy in the end, loneliness, loneliness
Nobody really tells you that
It can be hard to dare to jump
When I saw you come out of there and I knew that no longer
It would no longer be
The same life
And it's that I saw you come out of there
And I knew that no longer
It would no longer be
The same life

SONG MEANING

Pedestal is a song about the surprising magic that happens when you finally let go. Silvina Moreno sings of years spent building an impossible altar for someone, fueled by loneliness and fear. The moment she steps back and stops idealizing, that very person appears in a real, tangible way. It is a playful reminder that life loves to surprise us the second we drop our heavy expectations.

As the track unfolds, the two voices celebrate a personal transformation: fear melts, solitude turns from enemy to ally, and the future feels brand-new. The lyrics invite you to imagine brushing away the blinding summer sun with one hand and seeing clearly for the first time. When the pedestal crumbles, authentic connection—and a lighter, freer self—step into the spotlight.
