My Homeless Heart
I wish it was three years ago
When I didn't have locks on my heart
I wish it was then
I need to find my lucky star
To tell me who I am
Because I've lost the place
That I could let my light in
I've been running
I've been chased by all my demons
I've been hiding
So I don't have to face the scary feeling
That I'm lost in this world-
Alone
And I just wish my heart would go home
I've been able to tame my demons in me
But I can't set them free
I'm bound by them, I can't release
My mind
From this prison that hold myself in
And every day I wonder-
When am I finally allowed to rest?
Because I'm tired of holding another side of me
Completely in my head
I've been running
I've been chased by all my demons
I've been hiding
So I don't have to face the scary feeling
That I'm lost in this world-
Alone
And I just wish my heart would go home
My heart-
Please go home
Because I've been running away from everything
And everyone
I can't let the light in
Won't let the guards around my heart come down
Let myself be here
Home
I've been running
I've been chased by all my demons
I've been hiding
So I don't have to face the scary feeling
That I'm lost in this world-
Alone
And I just wish my heart would go home
My homeless heart, won't you go home?
You've been running from your demons
hiding from this feeling
that you’re alone,
so alone
but you won't be,
if you would just return home
