Castles in sand, temporary wealth
Walls arefalling down, storms are closing in
Tears have filled my eyes, here I am again
And I’ve held out as long as I can
Now I’m letting go and holding out my hand
Chrous:
Daddy, here I am again, will you take me back tonight
I went and made the world my friend, and it left me high and dry
I drag Your name back through the mud
That You first found me in
Not worthy to be called Your son
Is this to be my end?
Daddy, here I am
Here I am again
Curse this morning sun, drags me in to one more day
Of reaping what I’ve sown, of living with my shame
Welcome to my world, and the life that I have made
WHere one day you’re a prince, the next day your a slave
Chorus
