I am made up of fragments Bits of memory stain my skin And I can fade Into the woodwork, silent wallflower I have one foot stuck in the past, And I don’t know how to get it out Without twisting my ankle Oh, like-minded soul, Could you come To take me home? Oh, like-minded soul, Please, take my hand and lead me home It was so random, I dont even know how I spotted you through the fog of thoughts You caught my eye, your skin tattooed with memories Just like mine I saw the shadow in your eyes I couldn’t look away I couldn’t turn away from you Oh, like-minded soul, Could you come To take me home? Oh, like-minded soul, Please, take my hand and lead me Home I swear I see my own tearstains Turning your skin blue And I swear that those are my scars Shining on your arms And I might be looking in a mirror; Those eyes match mine Even though the color is off Our souls are the same, We feel the same odd heartbeat So, like-minded soul, Tell me, do you know way home? Oh, like-minded soul, Let’s go find the way home Oh, like-minded soul, Could you come To take me home? Oh, like-minded soul, Please, take my hand and lead me home Ooh, like-minded soul, I’ve come to take you home Oh, like-minded soul, Take my hand, I’ll lead you home.

Like-Minded Soul
I am made up of fragments Bits of memory stain my skin And I can fade Into the woodwork, silent wallflower I have one foot stuck in the past, And I don’t know how to get it out Without twisting my ankle Oh, like-minded soul, Could you come To take me home? Oh, like-minded soul, Please, take my hand and lead me home It was so random, I dont even know how I spotted you through the fog of thoughts You caught my eye, your skin tattooed with memories Just like mine I saw the shadow in your eyes I couldn’t look away I couldn’t turn away from you Oh, like-minded soul, Could you come To take me home? Oh, like-minded soul, Please, take my hand and lead me Home I swear I see my own tearstains Turning your skin blue And I swear that those are my scars Shining on your arms And I might be looking in a mirror; Those eyes match mine Even though the color is off Our souls are the same, We feel the same odd heartbeat So, like-minded soul, Tell me, do you know way home? Oh, like-minded soul, Let’s go find the way home Oh, like-minded soul, Could you come To take me home? Oh, like-minded soul, Please, take my hand and lead me home Ooh, like-minded soul, I’ve come to take you home Oh, like-minded soul, Take my hand, I’ll lead you home.
This is actually a song that I came up with last night...I have a basic melody and tune for it, and I’m hoping I might be able to actually put together some music for it...we’ll see what happens :)
