Happy For You

You know that feeling when you won't be giving a promotion, again, because you're too good at what you do? Yeah.

Prize me

Love me

Give me rewards

Show me

How much you need me

How you adore

Put me up on a pedestal

Let me be seen by all

Given gifts and praises, admiration

You don't want to risk my rage

Then you put someone else above me; I'm tired of keeping this face

Happy for you

Celebrating

Have a feast now

And Famine without me

Your Oracles have seen the truth

A future of prosperity

Where you don't have to worship me

Which I never asked of you

Human naive fell to greed

Thought it wise to wise to rid of me

Gleaming eyes that paid no heed

To the disaster coming on

Which I could've saved you from

Happy for you

Celebrating

Have a feast now

And Famine without me

All I asked was 'be a friend'

You idolized then disrespected

So I take my Exodus

And I leave you with this

You think you've won a victory

Giving in to greed

Your loss will come as swiftly

As you wiped my pedestal clean
