The Prodigal

I leave this world with a glint in my eye I've untold all of my lies And all the joy I leave behind I'll miss you too, love of mine Today no tombstone, no goodbyes My soul is full, watch it fly When I return, prodigal son This wounded world will be as one Be as one I leave this world a hopeful song Without a tear, I will prolong My bruises healed, my scars are gone And every beating made me strong So please don't cry, don't think it's wrong My soul is pure, it sings along When I return a better me You'll see that sorrow can set you free Set you free Set you free (I'll set you free) Set you free (I'll set you free) I leave this world to you all The constellations will never fall And if you're fearful, bare no mind The sun will rise, heed your call No open casket, no sullen wake Your will heart will mend if you break So without greed, without pride Shout I'm alive, I am alive (I'll set you free) I am alive (I'll set you free) I am alive (I'll set you free) I am alive (I'll set you free) I am alive (I'll set you free) (I'll set you free)
