Tinashe Fazakerley - Prodigal Son lyrics

[Verse 1] I wanna hold counsel with the ghost of my father Tell him I'll be everything he could never be And if I face the obstacles that he failed to conquer I'll make it to the other side [Chorus] I don't wanna go lonely I don't wanna reach out in the dead of night And find no one to hold me But I'm burning my bridges at the speed of light I got a monochrome candle Hollow in the middle, but I can't deny That I'm just like you Oh, I'm just like you [Verse 2] I wanna hold counsel with the ghost of my father Tell him I'll be everything he could never be And if I tame the anger in me he failed to sunder I'll make it to the other side [Chorus] I don't wanna go lonely I don't wanna reach out in the dead of night And find no one to hold me But I'm burning my bridges at the speed of light I got a monochrome candle Hollow in the middle, but I can't deny That I'm just like you Oh, I'm just like you [Bridge] But maybe I'm wrong And I'm just another prodigal, and cynical son, wrong I need to wake up, wake up, wake up Would someone tell me how come I can't find my equilibrium [Chorus] I don't wanna go lonely I don't wanna reach out in the dead of night And find no one to hold me But I'm burning my bridges at the speed of light I got a monochrome candle Hollow in the middle, but I can't deny That I'm just like you Oh, I'm just like you I don't wanna go lonely I don't wanna reach out in the dead of night And find no one to hold me But I'm burning my bridges at the speed of light I got a monochrome candle Hollow in the middle, but I can't deny That I'm just like you Oh, I'm just like you [Outro] I'm just like you Oh, I'm just like you I'm just like you Oh, I'm just like you I'm just like you Oh, I'm just like you I'm just like you I'm just like you
