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

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 Im 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 feeling, forgetting all that came before

I felt primed and ready, once surrounded 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 which you've 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 Im busy being unoppressed



One day Ill saddle back and speak of foreign adventures

One day Ill double back and tell you about these unfettered years

One day Ill look back and feel something other than relieved

Glad that I left when I did before, I know you, you can't get the best of me



When Id speak of artistry you would roll your eyes skyward

When Id speak of spirituality you would label it absurd

When I spoke of possibility you would frown and shake your head

If I had stayed much longer, Id have surely imploded



These are my words

This is my house

These are my friends of which you've had no part



Unprodigal daughter and Im heading for the west

Disenchanted daughter and this plane cannot fly fast enough

Unencumbered daughter hit the ground running at last

Id invite you but Im busy being unoppressed



Unprodigal daughter and Im heading for the west

Disenchanted daughter and this plane cannot fly fast enough

Unencumbered daughter hit the ground running at last

Id invite you but Im busy being unoppressed
