Prodigal
Living on my own, thinking for myself
Castles in the sand, temporary wealth
The walls have fallen down, the storms are closing in
And tears have filled my eyes, here I am again
And I've held out as long as I can
And now I'm letting go and holding out my hand
Daddy, here I am again
Will You take me back tonight?
I went and made the world my friend
And it left me high and dry
I drag Your name back through the mud
That You first found me in
Not worthy to be called Your son
Is this to be my end?
Daddy, here I am
Here I am again
Curse this morning sun
Drags me into one more day
Of reaping what I've sown
Of living with my shame
Welcome to my world
And the life that I have made
One day you're a prince
The next day you're a slave
And I've held out as long as I can
But now I'm letting go and holding out my hand
Daddy, here I am again
Will You take me back tonight?
I went and made the world my friend
And it left me high and dry
I drag Your name back through the mud
That You first found me in
Not worthy to be called Your son
Is this to be my end?
Daddy, here I am
Here I am again
And I've held out as long as I can
Now I'm letting go and holding out my hand
Daddy, here I am again
Will You take me back tonight?
I went and made the world my friend
And it left me high and dry
I drag Your name back through the mud
That You first found me in
Not worthy to be called Your son
Is this to be my end?
Daddy, here I am
Here I am again
I am beat and I am torn
I'm not running
I'm not running anymore
I'm not running
Castles in the sand, temporary wealth
The walls have fallen down, the storms are closing in
And tears have filled my eyes, here I am again
And I've held out as long as I can
And now I'm letting go and holding out my hand
Daddy, here I am again
Will You take me back tonight?
I went and made the world my friend
And it left me high and dry
I drag Your name back through the mud
That You first found me in
Not worthy to be called Your son
Is this to be my end?
Daddy, here I am
Here I am again
Curse this morning sun
Drags me into one more day
Of reaping what I've sown
Of living with my shame
Welcome to my world
And the life that I have made
One day you're a prince
The next day you're a slave
And I've held out as long as I can
But now I'm letting go and holding out my hand
Daddy, here I am again
Will You take me back tonight?
I went and made the world my friend
And it left me high and dry
I drag Your name back through the mud
That You first found me in
Not worthy to be called Your son
Is this to be my end?
Daddy, here I am
Here I am again
And I've held out as long as I can
Now I'm letting go and holding out my hand
Daddy, here I am again
Will You take me back tonight?
I went and made the world my friend
And it left me high and dry
I drag Your name back through the mud
That You first found me in
Not worthy to be called Your son
Is this to be my end?
Daddy, here I am
Here I am again
I am beat and I am torn
I'm not running
I'm not running anymore
I'm not running
