A Wandering Soul (Song Vers.)

A song version of my poem, A Wandering Soul.

Verse 1:

I asked myself many times
Who would ever love a flawed soul like me

Because each time I try,

I'm left with no answers,

Am I merely surviving before I die?

 

I tried reaching out once again

But why is it that each time I do so,

I arrive at a dead end

With not one other to take this hand.

 

Pre-Chorus:

I keep wondering, I keep wandering

Alone, in this ruthless cold,

With no one to call.

 

Chorus:

Till the end of time,

I'm just a wandering soul,

Alone,

in this brutal cold.

Till the end of my life,

I remain a broken soul,

Alone,

with no one to hold.

 

Verse 2:

I could scream at the top of my voice

But I’m still going to be on my own

I could run as fast as I could
But it doesn’t matter cause I’m still running alone

Am I a misguided soul who has fallen

In a place so cruel?

An insignificant soul who has been forgotten

In this merciless, unforgiving world?

 

Chorus:

Till the end of time,

I'm just a wandering soul,

Alone, on my own,

in this brutal cold.

Till the end of my life,

I remain a broken soul,

Alone, damaged and torn,

with no one to hold.

 

Bridge:

Please just hold me once

Please comfort me in your embrace

Please keep me together

I beg you, just this once

please make broken self feel safe.

 

Third Verse:

But why is it that each time I dream,

I wake up to the same miserable fact

As every dawn reminds me I’m still by myself

And nothing is ever going to change that

Pre-Chorus:

I keep wondering, I keep wandering alone

Final Chorus:

Till the end of time,

I'm just a wandering soul,

Alone,

in this brutal cold.

With no one to call

Till the end of my life,

I remain a broken soul,

Alone,

with no one to hold.

 

I will be on my own (till the end of time)

Damaged, ruined and torn

A spirit forlorn

in this most painful cold.

A wandering soul (till the end of my life)
Alone
With no one to hold.

                                      

Author's Note

I figured the words would better off sung in a song. So I decided to change and add some of the words to make it more compatible with a typical song structure. Somehow, I liked this version more than the other since I have a thing for repeated words.
