	Story Behind the Song The title kind of gives away what the song's about. It's kind of my "prodigal son" attitude while I've tried to figure out what life is all about. Specifically, the song deals with my wrestling with faith and how all of that works out in real life. Maybe you can relate? Lyrics My Life Every time I turn to walk away you told me you told me to stay how many times would it take me to obey I still don't know today But this time is different I'm taking my life into my own hands I know that I said I'd given it to you but I thought you'd understand Did I stutter when I told you I was going away I'm taking what is mine from you didn't you understand that you've too great a price to pay worst case scenario I prove you right with the things that I do Walking 'round on my cloud I scratch my head and wonder where I am rumor has it I'm the king of all that I am and I can handle that Did you really think I'd call on you to find me here why wake the pain that sleeps inside did you really think I'd follow you to where you told me to stay in this corner I've got plenty of room to hide Once again I'm crawling to my bed I can only shake my head bartender can't help me this time no wealth left to aid my crime Forty days of walking away now I am where I am today so bold to do not what I'm told but where is daddy when the spell grows old
