Heather Dale - Prodigal Son lyrics

Your rating:

Did you think that you were better, somehow better than 
me?
You come here with your arms thrown wide like that 
means anything to me
You think 'cause you're a big man now you can take what 
isn't yours
You come here in your righteousness and you think that 
opens doors

You've just come running back like a prodigal son
Just like a prodigal son

Did you miss the one that pushed you out, that womb 
that gave your life?
Did you come to see my father's grave or the man who 
took his wife?
You don't know what I could have been but for an 
accident of birth
But I got only what I could take and you were given 
God's own earth

And you come running back like a prodigal son
You think you can finish what we have begun
The cradle will rock and the cradle will fall
And I gave you nothing, but you gave it all

Did you somehow feel neglected? Did it leave you 
wanting more?
God, they raised you up like Jesus Christ and then they 
branded me the whore
They say when you get desperate, well, you'd do 
anything for pride
And I've got your little secret, dear--I've carried it 
inside

So you come running back like a prodigal son
You think you can finish what we have begun
The cradle will rock and the cradle will fall
And I gave you nothing, but you gave it all

You come back like a prodigal son
You think you can finish what we have begun
The cradle will rock and the cradle will fall
And I gave you nothing, but I took it all

Did you think that you were better, somehow better than 
me?
You come here with your arms thrown wide, like that 
means anything to me
You think 'cause you're a big man now you can take what 
isn't yours
You come here in your righteousness and you think that 
opens doors
Oh, yeah, you think that opens doors. (repeat 5)
