Who’s Gonna Save My Soul

[Verse 1]
I got some bad news, this morning
Which, in turn, made my day
When this someone spoke, I listened
All of a sudden has less, and less to say
Oh, how could this be?
All this time, I've lived vicariously

[Chorus]
Who's gonna save my soul, now?
Who's gonna save my soul, now?
How will my story ever be told, now?
How will my story be told, now?

[Verse 2]
Made me feel like somebody
Hmm, like somebody else
Although he was imitated often
It felt like I was bein' myself
Is it a shame that someone else's song
Was totally and completely depended on?

[Chorus]
Who's gonna save my soul, now?
Who's gonna save my soul, now?
I wonder if I'll live to grow old, now
Gettin' high 'cause I feel so low down

[Verse 3]
And maybe it's a little selfish
All I have is the memory
Yet, I never stopped to wonder
Was it possible you were hurtin' worse than me?
Still, my hunger turns to greed
'Cause what about what I need?
And oh

[Chorus]
Who's gonna save my soul, now?
Who's gonna save my soul, now?
Oh, I know I'm out of control, now
Ooh, tired enough to lay my own soul down
