Sevendust - Prodigal Son lyrics

Passing through this life with so much regret

It feels like I haven't got over it yet

It takes so long for these wounds to heal

I'm knockin' down walls, takin' my time

I gotta get outta here

Where will I go?

Who will I become?

I'm coming on like an elephant gun

[chorus]

Reaching for the piece of life that I can't find

The sun keeps fading away

Searching for the feeling that will never come

The return of the prodigal son

[solo 1]

Last night the moon seemed to look so empty

I fell into a pit of despair (goin' nowhere)

I never thought that these wounds would - HEAL!

I fell to my knees, the rain came down

I thought I could touch the sky

What have I done, why was I so wrong?

Hear the pop of my elephant gun!

[chorus]

[solo 2]

[chorus]

The Prodigal Son

His time has just begun

I finally found a feeling

The return of the Prodigal Son

Let's go ahead and give ‘em their money's worth
