Lincoln Durham - Ballad of a prodigal son lyrics

[Verse 1] Father don't you recognize your own kin? It's been a lifetime, or maybe two My hair is longer, and my face drawn thin From years of searchin' for the truth [Chorus] Whoa-oa-oa-a-oa-oa-oa In the valley of the bones Whoa-oa-oa-a-oa-oa-oa They're gonna rise up and head on home [Verse 2] We all wander through this shattered old world Gettin' more gla** in our feet Leavin' bloody tracks everywhere we turn Like a morbid hide-and-go-seek [Chorus] Two plus two ain't always four And sometimes black ends up white And here's a million shades of gray in between When you manage to shed a little light [Chorus] [Bridge] I've been in every patchwork revival tent from here to yon So brothers don't you recognize your own kin? I have returned like a prodigal son
