Made My Peace

(album: Peace...Like A River - 2023)

For many a year I've wandered this road
Never once paying the debts that I owed
But there's no place to hide when the day finally comes
A reckoning waits for us all
For us all

Hey look at me I'm the prodigal son
Coming back home after years on the run
Ready to reveal to you all that I'm finally whole
And that I've made my peace

I watched them all die as they struggled with honor
Defending their anger as if it were truth
Lusting for fame as they fell through the air
But nobody's there when you fall

Hey look at me I'm the prodigal son
Coming back home after years on the run
Ready to reveal to you all that I'm finally whole
And that I've made my peace

I squandered my love just to lay down in darkness
Sold my soul for wine and a song
Traded my gold for a morning of glory
Now I know my time ain't long

Listen to me, my tale is a tragic one
Come feast your eyes on the damage I've done
But it's not too late to reap what you sow
'Cause nobody's there when you fall
When you fall
When you fall
When you fall
When you fall
When you fall
When you fall
When you fall
When you fall
When you fall
When you fall

Hey look at me I'm the prodigal son
Coming back home after years on the run
Ready to reveal to you all that I'm finally whole
And that I've made my peace
Made my peace
I've made my peace
Made my peace
