Prodigal
Welcome back to life my wayward son
Alive again how did you become so numb
You needn't dwell upon the future, cause your fate is on the house tonight
Voices in your head led you astray
Condemnation finalized you've been betrayed
Another mortal man just looking for a way to feel alive
Author of man, creator of our own design
Please understand, you're gambling with life
Offer your hand, deliver you to paradise
City of the damned, welcome to your afterlife
Placed a bet upon your fractured soul
Pulled you under, fire's never felt so cold
We are your overlords, your nevermore, your saviors in your time of need
Show you what it's like to be unmade
Don't depart just yet you still have debts unpaid
Had you forgotten we're the ones who pull the strings to set you free
Author of man, creator of our own design
Please understand, you're gambling with life
Offer your hand, deliver you to paradise
City of the damned, welcome to your
Afterlife, it's where souls like you belong
Paid the price, for the things you knew were wrong
Fate likes taking its time, so don't keep the devil waiting
So don't mourn the past, there's no changing your fate, the ending's the same
Your life is over but your death has just begun
Perdition take this prodigal son
Have you come to reap, what you have sown
We'll harvest your greed, and ferry you home
A king dethroned, dragged down below
To finally atone, to pay what you owe
In isolation, down here you're alone
Damnation, you're out on your own
This desolation, for selling your soul
Alive again how did you become so numb
You needn't dwell upon the future, cause your fate is on the house tonight
Voices in your head led you astray
Condemnation finalized you've been betrayed
Another mortal man just looking for a way to feel alive
Author of man, creator of our own design
Please understand, you're gambling with life
Offer your hand, deliver you to paradise
City of the damned, welcome to your afterlife
Placed a bet upon your fractured soul
Pulled you under, fire's never felt so cold
We are your overlords, your nevermore, your saviors in your time of need
Show you what it's like to be unmade
Don't depart just yet you still have debts unpaid
Had you forgotten we're the ones who pull the strings to set you free
Author of man, creator of our own design
Please understand, you're gambling with life
Offer your hand, deliver you to paradise
City of the damned, welcome to your
Afterlife, it's where souls like you belong
Paid the price, for the things you knew were wrong
Fate likes taking its time, so don't keep the devil waiting
So don't mourn the past, there's no changing your fate, the ending's the same
Your life is over but your death has just begun
Perdition take this prodigal son
Have you come to reap, what you have sown
We'll harvest your greed, and ferry you home
A king dethroned, dragged down below
To finally atone, to pay what you owe
In isolation, down here you're alone
Damnation, you're out on your own
This desolation, for selling your soul
