Lyrics
The Prodigal Son
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
[Bonustrack for the Japanese version]
Why did I leave?
Lost, fooled, confused
Crawling in the mud with pigs
Starved to death
Discouragement strangeling me
I have no breath
Full of sorrow and despair
The father lets his son away
Challenging the world without fear
Unknown of the evil atmosphere
Imperfect man, imprudent mind
Disobediant to the call of God
Exhaustion becomes perdominant
Hell on earth is where I am
I'm longing back to a life in peace
With abundance of food
And plenty of water
I'll return to my father's house
And tell him I'm worthless as his son
Father please forgive me
For I have sinned against you
Regretting man, independant mind
Attraction to the call of God
With open arms the father
Welcomes his son back
He was dead and became alive
He was lost and has been found
Spiritual satisfaction
Inner peace
Comes from the Father
