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
Is when you appeared
When I remembered
Is when you chose me
When I took you down
From that so unreal pedestal
The one I built
With so many years of loneliness, loneliness, loneliness
All I want is to forget
All that fear that hurt me so much
When I saw you come out of there
And I knew that no longer
It wouldn't be
The same life
And I saw you come out of there
And I knew that no longer
It wouldn't be
The same life
I blurred myself
Covering with my hand
All that light
From a summer sun
The healing time
Sings the truth like a nightingale
It wasn't so bad
It wasn't my enemy in the end, loneliness, loneliness
No one really tells you
It can be hard to muster the courage to jump
When I saw you come out of there and I knew that no longer
It wouldn't be
The same life
And I saw you come out of there
And I knew that no longer
It wouldn't 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.
