Trivia, story behind the song, etc.

I was sitting outside of a coffee/bakery shop called Bread and Circuses in Wpg. when I saw a fellow ride by in his wheelchair. He was maneuvering it with a tube he had in his mouth. It was a time in my life when unfortunately I was feeling somewhat sorry for myself. He gave me perspective. I trully believe life is just experience for the soul.. [1]



Lyrics

(Ron Rougeau) 2005-11-06

I saw a man at Bread and Circuses 
A motorized wheelchair he drove 
I watched him as he turned the corner 
He seemed to be so in control 
and I thought 

What if I were in those shoes 
What would I do 
If I couldn’t move 
anything from my neck on down 

I suppose one never knows 
but like the chair in which he rode 
The body’s just a vehicle 
for the soul 

I think a lot about life 
these days 
How far I’ve come 
where I’ve been 
How fate, luck, or a lack of it 
Can set the stage 
for the lives we’re in 

Can it be for me and you 
Life’s not a game 
we win or lose 
For in the pleasure or the pain 
It’s all the same 
we’ll come to know 
The planted seed needs to grow 
and life is just a vehicle 
for the soul
