Get Well Soon

Gutter age
Oh how they're loved
Said the man behind the mask of diamond
Follow me
Without a thought
Place the stones to lift him off the ground

Recite the words in order
And without fail
He takes the shape of what we want
It's all we want, it's what he wants, without a thought

Wash away all that he's made
To reveal an ugly past he left out in the open
Enemy
Now you've been named a failure to hold the status above your head

Left you to fend on your own
In the end you're skin and bone

He's reaching outward
He never felt like this before
Speaking his last words
Before we found him washed ashore

There was a day they used to say

False stage, begging to stay
Question the answer, it's fading away
False stage, it's all he owned
His words make us feel alone

It's been lit up all this time
Hanging in the gallery
Drawn in perfect lines

If I'm still breathing I'll bring the swarm of hands
Pulling apart pieces of art
See what's left
Left all alone, you're skin and bone
Leave him to rot, end of a God
