Paper Tigers - Prodigal Son

This town, it changes when the sun goes down on the horizon
There's violence in the minds of men, who silence your opinions
I am a master of my own, a-disaster in the making
What does it take to make you stop, cause it is my heart you're breaking
I am the prodigal son, a man of many vices
This battle will not be won, without some sacrifices
I will not give in again, even though the pressure's mounting
But I can only last so long
We'll soldier on and do our best to shoulder every burden
Our way of life is changing fast, this state is so uncertain
I'm just a ghost train on my own, a host to many feelings
I'll meet my maker just to see if he's a human being
I am the prodigal son, a man of many vices
This battle will not be won, without some sacrifices
I will not give in again, even though the pressure's mounting
But I can only last so long
We said we need it, but you don't believe that we do
I found the answer, inside me like cancer, it grew
It's hard to swallow the words are so hollow, it's true
There's something special about all the weapons you use
I am the prodigal son, a man of many vices
This battle will not be won, without some sacrifices
I will not give in again, even though the pressure's mounting
But I can only last so long
Best of luck to you and yours in the afterlife
I hope you get the chance to fix what did not go right
Everyone that you failed when you were alive
Will find their way back to you
