Farewell Frown

Since when did you ever feel, this way about yourself?
The last that we met, you left your smile upon the shelf
Not that I'm complaining, 'cos I'm glad that you are well
What happened since we last met, when your life was a living hell?

I have shed a tear, from what I hear you've left behind
What gave you hope? What gave you faith? What gave you peace of mind?

Did you find yourself a perfect cure, or another deluded craze?
Did you find yourself another god, who's name that you can praise?
What miracle was bestowed upon, your sullen, worn in face?
That made your doubt and disbelief, disappear without a trace?

I have shed a tear, from what I hear you've left behind
What gave you hope? What gave you faith? What gave you peace of mind?

Say goodbye to your failures
And to when you felt the strain
Say farewell to that frown upon your face
To the sadness that won't remain
Know that the rising tide is near
But it won't crash upon your shore
Know that your fears and deep regrets
Won't linger here anymore

Was it love that gave you happiness?
Did friendship give you pride?
What brought you all this joy,
And all these smiles you cannot hide?
As dark clouds flying overhead
Drift past our lonely skies
These rays of all your happiness
Just make me question why
Will I ever know? Will I ever know?

Say goodbye to your failures
And to when you felt the strain
Say farewell to that frown upon your face
To the sadness that won't remain
Know that the rising tide is near
But it won't crash upon your shore
Know that your fears and deep regrets
Won't linger here anymore
