Lost Souls begins with Righteous Blues, a slow gospel/blues song in the classic rock vein, maybe the Band meets the Eagles meets Pink Floyd. In this song, our hero believes that he is righteous, that he is a good person, on a good path, but...

Lyrics
When your mind's all tore up and your soul's stretched thin
You've got two holes in both shoes
And the cross is so heavy with the weight of your sins
You wish they would just crucify you
If you silence your demons, you'll hear HEAVENLY hymns
Singing you just what to do
If you chose to listen thats when you begin
To start singing your righteous blues
When your sorely tested and you don't give in
And nobody knows it but you
And that big old bully hits you square on the chin
Do you turn one cheek or two?
And when you get to HEAVEN and there's no virgins
Tell me what would Mohamed do?
Just listen to Jesus, cause he's sitting in
While we're playing your righteous blues
When your mind's all tore up and your soul's stretched thin
You've got two holes in both shoes
And the cross is so heavy with the weight of your sins
You wish they would just crucify you
When you silence your demons, you'll hear HEAVENLY hymns
Singing you just what to do
I chose to do what my MAKER says to
So I'm singing her/his righteous blues
