Homeless

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
