Homeless - Marina Kaye

In this house where I grew up

With cozy chairs and broken cups

Memories piled up to the ceiling

Can they tell what I am feeling

I know this house outside and in

But three birds fly upon my skin

Lay my head down in the darkness

Like so many nights before this

In this bed where I rest

I’m homeless

This house I know best

But I’m homeless

My hunger it grows

And it won’t let me go

And it burns in my chest

I’m homeless

Heavy steps on hardwood floors

Into my room through broken doors

Try to leave this day behind me

But peace will never find me

In this bed where I rest

I’m homeless

This house I know best

But I’m homeless

My hunger it grows

And it won’t let me go

And it burns in my chest

I’m homeless

I have a place

I can call my own

That’s where I go 'til the night is gone

I travel my mind

And into my heart

Nobody knows when I go that far

In this bed where I rest

I’m homeless

This house I know best

But I’m homeless

My hunger it grows

And it won’t let me go

And it burns in my chest

I’m homeless
