Lost Soul
Emotional Odyssey: A Lost Soul's Plea for Love and Redemption
Lyrics
Tell her not to go, tell her not to leave
Telling someone not to depart, urging them to stay
It's ok
Expressing acceptance or reassurance
Tell her to stay a while and pray
Encouraging someone to remain for a period and pray
You know we sacrifice
Acknowledging a willingness to make sacrifices
You know that we in love so much
Affirming a deep love despite circumstances
I don't care if you've been
Indifference to whether the person has been involved with another
Touched by another man's embrace
Acceptance of potential past experiences of intimacy with another man
But I can see through your eyes
Asserting the ability to perceive beyond words
Though my heart sometimes lies
Acknowledging personal deception at times despite feelings
Do you really despise a man
Questioning whether the person despises someone who once shared their soul
Who once shared your soul?
Expressing inability to let go of emotions while the other person remains unaware
But I can't let go, and you'll never know
Reflection on feeling lost within the context of another's world
I'm just a lost soul
Reiteration of feeling lost and struggling within the person's world, seeking answers
Struggling in your world
-Hold me in your arms, don't let me go
-I'm just a lost soul
-Struggling in your world
-I seek the answers I'm not sure
Expressing uncertainty about entitlement to seek certain answers
That I'm allowed to know
-Look at me mama, are you praying for me?
Seeking understanding and guidance from family, questioning fairness and blame
My faith ain't what it used to be
-I'm having some trouble gettin'
-Over her love
-You keep telling me to focus on things above
-Look at me daddy, what do ya see?
-A little momma's boy displaced from reality
-It seems so unfair, were you ever there?
-Did I just blame you for the
-Shit that's happening to me?
-Look at me God, oh
Addressing God, questioning why attention should be paid, and seeking kindness in one's time of need
I'm just a man, why should you pay any mind?
-When my own, day has come for me, oh lord
-Please be kind
-Cause I'm just a lost soul
Repetition of feeling lost and seeking answers, uncertain of entitlement to know
Struggling in your world
-Hold me in your arms, don't let me go
-I'm just a lost soul
-Struggling in your world
-I seek the answers I'm not sure
-That I'm allowed to know
-Look at me lovely, what happened to us?
Reflecting on a relationship's deterioration, acknowledging the cost of changes, expressing love, and remorse
We had something that the
-World could never touch
-We became tainted, innocence lost
-Our new lives that we lead came at a cost
-I hope it was worth it
-I hope your life is great
-You know you deserve it and I deserve my fate
-For letting you go, but I want you to know
-I have loved you even when it didn't show
-I have loved you, I have loved
-You, I have loved you
-Loved you
Reiteration of having loved
I'm just a lost soul
Reiteration of feeling lost and struggling in the person's world, seeking answers
Struggling in your world
-Hold me in your arms, don't let me go
-I'm just a lost soul
-Struggling in your world
-I seek the answers I'm not sure
-That I'm allowed to know
