Odd Soul Lyrics

I was once a son
Now I'm on my own
Wade through everyone
And I've got myself to show
The trials and tribulations
Seem to always track me down
Gonna ride off into the sunset
And try me another town

I'm an odd soul
Yes, an odd soul
Walking side road
Cause that's the only way I know
I'm an odd soul
Yes an odd soul

Watch for who you know
Careful what you try
Everywhere I go
I've still got myself to fight
And if one day my child
Ever wonders what is wrong
I won't bat an eye when
I tell her, daddy don't belong

I'm an odd soul
Yes, an odd soul
Walking side road
Cause that's the only way I know
I'm an odd soul
Yes an odd soul
One of God's own
Just trying to find a place called home

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Lyrics from the CD:

I was once a son Now I'm on my own Wade through everyone And I've got myself to show The trials and tribulations Seem to always track me down Gonna ride off into the sunset And try me another town

I'm an odd soul Yes, an odd soul Walking side road Cause that's the only way I know I'm an odd soul Yes an odd soul

Watch for who you know Careful what you try Everywhere I go I've still got myself to fight And if one day my child Ever wonders what is wrong I won't bat an eye when I tell her, daddy don't belong

I'm an odd soul Yes, an odd soul Walking side road Cause that's the only way I know I'm an odd soul Yes an odd soul One of God's own Just trying to find a place called home

I thought it said "walkin' foreign roads, cause that's the only way I know" and I'm kinda disappointed that those aren't the real lyrics, haha. Regardless, this song is amazing. I'm glad that they titled their new album with it. Such a different step from Armistice and all their other stuff.
