Unprodigal Daughter Lyrics

I had disengaged to avoid being totaled I would run away and say good riddance soon enough I had grown disgusted by your small-minded ceiling To imagine myself bolting had not been difficult
Soon be my life, soon be my pace Soon be my choice of which you'll have no part of
Unprodigal daughter and I'm heading for the west Disenchanted daughter and this plane cannot fly fast enough Unencumbered daughter, hit the ground running at last I'd invite you but I'm busy being unoppressed
I hit the ground running although I know not what toward I hit the town reeling forgetting all that came before I felt primed and ready, unsurrounded by the pawns I felt culture shocked but dissuaded I was not
This is my town, this is my voice This is my taste of what you've had no part of
Unprodigal daughter and I'm heading for the west Disenchanted daughter and this plane cannot fly fast enough Unencumbered daughter, hit the ground running at last I'd invite you but I'm busy being unoppressed
One day I'll saddle back and speak of foreign adventures One day I'll double back and tell you about these unfettered years One day I'll look back and feel something other than relieved Glad that I left when I did before your dear, can't get the best of me
When I'd speak of artistry you would roll your eyes skyward When I'd speak of spirituality you would label it absurd When I spoke of impossibility you would frown and shake your head If I had stayed much longer I'd have surely imploded
These are my words, this is my house These are my friends of which you've had no part of
Unprodigal daughter and I'm heading for the west Disenchanted daughter and this plane cannot fly fast enough Unencumbered daughter, hit the ground running at last I'd invite you but I'm busy being unoppressed
Unprodigal daughter and I'm heading for the west Disenchanted daughter and this plane cannot fly fast enough Unencumbered daughter, hit the ground running at last I'd invite you but I'm busy being unoppressed
