Verse 1:
I’m so cold and freedom washed from the rivers of the Nile-
I grow so old and I can’t run me life, I guess I am in denial
The stories I tell, tell of a man, that couldn’t even walk a mile
And you frown and scold at every direction told, so why can’t you smile?
Chorus:
Because I’m just sick
Of livin a life
What is the point of being happy
When you’re not sure what you do right?
If you’re so precious
Why did God take you down?
But just always remember-
That you aren’t the ruler of my frown…
Verse 2:
You are just so stupid
And you can’t handle the pain
I know you are different
But what if I am still the same?
And I’d say “I love you.”
If only I knew it true
So tell me what’s the problem?
Cuz if it’s not me,
It must be you
Chorus:
Because I’m just sick
Of livin a life
What is the point of being happy
When you’re not sure what you do right?
If you’re so precious
Why did God take you down?
But just always remember-
That you aren’t the ruler of my frown…
(Music Break) (Chorus)
Verse 3:
Sometimes I laugh out loud
It’s for no reason at all
Some people can’t handle it
Like I can’t handle the pain
And I’d say “I love you.”
If only I knew it true
So tell me what’s the problem?
Cuz if it’s not me,
It must be you
Chorus:
Because I’m just sick
Of livin a life
What is the point of being happy
When you’re not sure what you do right?
If you’re so precious
Why did God take you down?
But just always remember-
That you aren’t the ruler of my frown…
Ending:
The stories told, tell of a man that couldn’t walk a mile
And yet you frown and scold at every direction told
So now why is it you, can’t smile
And I can’t frown.
You aren’t the ruler of my frown
