Lyrics:
I was screamin' out your name
Guess you never heard me
I was screamin' it for years
And I think I deserve a reason for why
You've remained so elusive
I was thinkin' about my life
And I can't believe that
I have wasted so much time
Tryin' to be what everyone loves:
The prodigal son returnin'
Oh, what a sight!
The prodigal son returnin'
And if Jesus Christ ever reached out and touched my life
He certainly left no sign that let me know he had
And I wouldn't mind, that he couldn't find the time
It's just that now my heart longs for things that probably don't exist
But now, I think I see this for what it is
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul is tired
Well, I've got an itch to scratch!
And I've got a stone to throw!
And I wanna sink my teeth into your hallow bones!
And I've got a bone to pick!
And I wanna pick it clean!
Oh, the prodigal son and his shameful disbelief
And I want somethin' better
I want somethin' better
I, want somethin' real
I, want somethin' real
I want somethin' better
I want somethin' better
I, want somethin' real
I, want somethin' real
And this is the part, where my exit starts!
'Cause I caught a glimpse of the father's heart!
Do we want somethin' we can't have?
Do we want somethin' we can't have?
So come on friends, count up your sins:
One for being human,
Two for being born like this!
Ohh, this isn't love
Ohh, we're not in love
Ohh, if you want love
Well you just should've spoken up!
