I Hope You’re Happy Now

Where’s your congregation gone you venture on alone,

Where no one listens when you’re preaching all you think you know.

Your ship came in and left you void of purpose on the shore.

Your legacy don’t matter anymore.

The cobblestones are crumbling along your chosen path.

Your vagabond court jester’s finally having the last laugh.

The prophet with the withered hand, she grins and draws your card,

And now you see yourself for what you are.

And though you swore that you’d make history and dance among the stars

You’re just another face lost in the crowd.

Though I’d like to wish you well, that’s a lie I cannot tell.

The truth is that I hope you’re happy now.

Everything has changed its shape from how it was before.

Your one true love has called your bluff and shown you to the door.

And though you’re weak and wounded by this Judas we call life.

Consider this the last twist of the knife.

And as you pass the halls of karma on your high horse you may ride,

But keep in mind it all comes back around.

Did you make each moment count…’cause your time is running out?

And when it does, I hope you’re happy now.



And now the table’s turned, the coin has flipped, you’ve drawn the shortest straw.

Your spotlight fades, the curtain’s going down.

When you take your final bow to a dark and empty house

Remember that I hope you’re happy now.

Yes, in the end I hope you’re happy now.
