Prodigal Son Lyrics

I. Funerale

Essence of beauty
taken too soon.
Princess of hope,
deep in our hearts you live on.

Essence of goodness,
Godess of life.
Give us the power,
God give us strength to live on.

Essence of beauty
taken too soon.
Princess of hope,
deep in our hearts you live on.

Essence of goodness,
Godess of life.
Give us the power,
God give us strength...

Give us the strength to live on!


II. Burden Of Shame

How could this happen,
of what have have done?
Will our tears ever pay for our sin?

Mother forgive us,
we need all your love
to fight and to carry
the burden of shame.

Here by we swear that
for as long as we live,
we will not soil our name.

The truth made of iron
will seal it with pain.
Until death our secret remains.

Until death our love remains
and in death our love re-framed.


III. The Journey

A minute away,
but worlds apart.
Brothers in blood,
now divided in heart.

By grief and sorrow
one is striving to repay.
Behind the palisade
he lives his destined life.

The music and the tears
are piercing through the walls.
Turn to nightmares,
and there is no escape at all.

Oh joyful childhood,
you died so young!

Every child follows blind
on the journey we call life.
Learning every day,
learning with every step.

Given love or given hate
determines everybody's fate in life.
Be careful what you give!

A stranger to love
and affection on the run.
In search of shelter
in the solitude of sin.

A drifter in the dark,
a soldier of the pain.
A constant slave
under the belt of misery.

Oh joyful childhood,
you died so young!

Every child follows blind
on the journey we call life.
Learning every day,
learning with every step.

Given love or given hate
determines everybody's fate in life.
Be careful what you give!
