Steemit Open Mic Week 60 - Cover of "The Wanderer" by Amorphis


Greetings Steemians

I bring another cover this week from one of my favorite bands Amorphis. This song came out around 2013 and the lyrics and feel seemed to speak to me after the death of my wife. I felt like the man in this song for many years and in some ways I always will.



lyrics

 Behold this man on the road
The burden that he holds
He lost it all but still he carries on
The dead are left behind
On the road of pain and grief
Promises have been broken
Once again he's been deceived

Homeless man he is
A wanderer without a hope
Why this heavy burden
What does he seek
Homeless man he is
Searching for his dreams
Why this heavy burden
Lost all his beliefs

The Spirit Roams

Behold today the face of this man
He smiles now as he knows
He's burden starts to slowly fade away
He laughs at himself
Now it's easy to let go, of futile and the needless
To let it lie, to let it go 



I hope you enjoyed!

This will be the last cover  do for a while because I will be participating in @meno 's songwriter challenge for 8 weeks coming up very soon. Thanks @meno and @luzcypher for that as well as all the host and judges from open mic @pfunk and  @soundlegion @passion-ground @verbal-d @krystle
