From the recording Life Train - 2023
Lyrics
This is a song about a man who was content with his life. Because life is unpredictable, it damaged his Psyche.
"Crippled Soul"
(Lyrics and Music - M. Novak)
Watchin’ the sunset,
The clouds are ablaze and my minds in a haze
And I’m, travelin’ in the dark, contempt in my heart.
I was once just a happy man,
Not a care in the world I had the plan
Now that’s all changed, my life’s been rearranged.
Life has taken it’s toll, I’ve got a crippled soul.
I don’t know how this came to be,
Don’t know what’s become of me But I’m fallin' down to hell
My soul is just an empty shell.
A glimmer of light brightens up my day
But then the clouds return, and the light fades away.
My soul is bound in the dark, pain and fear surround my heart.
Life has taken it’s toll, I’ve got a crippled soul.
CHORUS:
Is there anyone in the world to heal my crippled soul
I’ve got a crippled soul
Anyway in the world to mend my crippled soul
I’ve got a crippled soul
Could it just be love that saves my crippled soul
Crippled soul
My crippled soul.
I’ve got a crippled soul
Watchin’ the sunrise,
As the day unfolds I don’t feel so old
Thanks to help from all my friends,
But the pain it never ends.
I see the path to the light of day
But the veil returns, to shroud my way.
My beliefs no longer true, I don’t know what to do
Life has taken it’s toll, I’ve got a crippled soul.
CHORUS
