Album: Prodigal God
THE YOUNGER SON
Why am I leaving?
Why do I ask so much?
THE SERVANT
Have you become a man?
THE YOUNGER SON
Where will leaving lead?
THE SERVANT
You don't know the way
THE YOUNGER SON & THE SERVANT
Will I
you ever return?
THE SERVANT
Why are you leaving?
Because you want it all
THE YOUNGER SON
That's how I've always been
THE SERVANT
One day you'll return
THE YOUNGER SON
That's all I know to do
THE YOUNGER SON & THE SERVANT
But will you
I ever learn?
THE SERVANT'S DAUGHTER
Ooh, ahh
THE FATHER
You may never understand
Why a man will do what he will do
He can't see the price he'll pay
His pride will keep his pain at bay
THE ELDER SON
Yesterday I had the whole world
A father, brother, wife and a future
Now I've lost it all in a single day
So why am I staying?
THE ELDER SON & THE SERVANT'S DAUGHTER
Why am I staying?
THE YOUNGER SON
There are moments I can't bear to be alive
It's too powerful, it's too terrible
Hear the howling in my brain, feel the growling in my heart
It's so powerful, it's so wonderful
THE FATHER
God in heaven, hear my prayer
THE YOUNGER SON
I'm scared to say what we both know
THE FATHER
Is now the time to let them go?
THE YOUNGER SON
No good can come from what I've done
THE FATHER
My voice upraised could stop them cold
THE YOUNGER SON
But I'm too crazed to turn back now
THE FATHER
And freeze the blood of love's free flow
THE YOUNGER SON
Why can't I stop myself? Why can't I stop myself?
THE TOWNSFOLK
What a tragedy, what a terrible scene
The house of Provision is now called the house of grief
The irrational father has given as if he were dead
Because of his foolishness
We're left with nothing but dread
THE YOUNGER SON
Why am I leaving?
THE ELDER SON
Why am I staying?
