Homeless Heart - Amanda Stott

Lonesome stranger
With a crowd around you
I see who you are

You joke, they laugh
Til the show is over
Then you fall so hard

If you're needing
A soul-to-soul connection
I'll run to your side

When you're lost in the dark
When you're out in the cold
When you're looking for something that resembles your soul
When the wind blows your house of cards
I'll be a home to your homeless heart

Open close me
Leave your secrets with me
I can ease your pain

And my arms will be
Just like walls around you
Come in from the rain

If you're running
In the wrong direction
I will lead you back

When you're lost in the dark
When you're out in the cold
When you're looking for something that resembles your soul
When the wind blows your house of cards
I'll be a home to your homeless heart

Broken
Shattered like a mirror
In a million pieces
Sooner or later
You've got to find
Something someone
To find you and save you

When you're lost in the dark
When you're out in the cold
When you're looking for something that resembles your soul
When the wind blows your house of cards
I'll be a home to your homeless heart

When you're looking for something that resembles your soul
When the wind blows your house of cards
I'll be a home to your homeless heart

I'll be a home to your homeless heart

Summary: Out of all of the songs that came to mind for this assignment, I think I feel the most connection towards this piece. In a way, it reminds me of who I aspire to be someday. Someone, who even though has been dealt a bad hand by fate, can continue picking herself for the sake of someone out there who isn't able to pick themselves back up. Someone who can give hope to those that are hopeless. That even though life can be pathetic and you may feel like you're just drowning in a pool of despair, that you can rely on somebody in this world to try and bring you back to the light because no one should have to do it alone. Sometimes, all we need is someone's input and a small word of encouragement to keep moving forward. People can make an impact on our lives. Whether it's good or bad only time will tell. Even if the experience is bad though, you learn a life long lesson from it. So, in short basically, keep striving to make a better future for yourself. Don't give up on the world yet, for even though it seems like it's filled with people who make your life miserable every day; keep remembering that there's someone out there, maybe you've met them already, or maybe you will meet each other in the future, they'll find you and save you from the darkness and just maybe you can save them from their own darkness too. That's why I chose this song, it was because it shows how people should treat each other. Maybe it only seems like a fantasy- but given time and effort, fantasies can easily be turned into realities.
