Greetings!

Tonight I’m shining a light on Stolen Soul. This is one I wrote and was well received in the Steemit Song Writer’s challenge that was put together by @meno early last year. After I wrote and performed it, @thomasrobertgent and @davidfar wanted to further flesh out the tune, so @thomasrobertgent hit the drums on it and @davidfar laid down a bassline and mixed and mastered the whole thing. I myself wrote the music, lyrics, played the guitars and vocals. The song is basically about how most of our problems stem from our own failures.

lyrics:

born into a world full of hope
bereft after a million years of sorrow
can I replace what was stolen from me
can we find a better way to be
ask my stolen soul
find my peace taken far below
who could it be to cause this misery
could it be the thief was me
(repeat)
hollowed out by years of self serving lies
I stand a shell of spite against passing time
my hope lays dead in the ruins of my heart
I’ll find my peace in the only thing that’s real
death
ask my stolen soul
find my peace taken far below
who could it be to cause this misery
could it be the thief was me
(repeat)
