When we were both young everybody would talk about you
They would always say "this kid is something special"
Took it to far when they said "you were born to lead"
Somehow they forgot that everyone needs to grow

You were so far ahead, ahead of your own age
But then you got stuck, it's like you couldn't turn the page

But now you've returned
You've returned to yourself
Now you're returned
You've returned to yourself

As kids we were tight and would do everything together
Loved the same bands and had so much respect for each other
All of that changed as we started getting older
I guess at some point it didn't even really bother

We stopped being brothers, we stopped being friends
I started giving you names, I called you a politician

But now you're returned
You're returned to yourself
Now you're returned
You're returned to yourself

You're no longer lost
You have been found
You're no longer lost
You have returned

Glory be to God
For he has done great wonders
He showed you where the light is
And brought you on the right path

Now you've returned
You've returned to yourself
Yeah you've returned
You've returned to yourself

You're no longer lost
You have been found, no
You're no longer lost
You have returned
