**Homeless Love **
lyrics and music by Sasha Tkachuk

ART: Phoenix, Andrey, Sasha Tkachuk, Leif Hansen (Drømmer)

I grew up like a wild wolf, damn, savage and angry,
Belonging to no one, hungry, a stranger to this life.
Basements were my luxury, the dumpster my table,
And who could understand me, who would even find me?

I never knew love, and to hell with it anyway,
The whole world is a bitch, and life is a trap.
Only cold in my heart, and a hole in my jacket,
And I thought that happiness was just an empty game.

And then I met, damn, this one guy,
And I understood: he's mine, damn, no one is more important.
For Thomas, I'll rip someone's throat out, I swear,
And if it comes to it, for him, the bastard, I'll give my soul,
I'll melt like a candle, yes, melt like a candle.

He wasn't from the dumpster, not beaten by fate,
But pure, like an angel, and so very kind.
From a normal home, with a mom and tea,
He'd look at me and say, "Don't be sad."

At first, I'd snarl, like, "What do you want, punk?"
But he would just smile, like a ray of sunshine.
And something inside me, damn it, trembled suddenly,
As if my hunted spirit had awakened.

Because then I met, damn, this one guy,
And I understood: he's mine, damn, no one is more important.
For Thomas, I'll rip someone's throat out, I swear,
And if it comes to it, for him, the bastard, I'll give my soul,
I'll melt like a candle, yes, melt like a candle.

He teaches me how to laugh and to live,
That you don't have to steal, but can share and be friends.
To love, and let his folks give me the side-eye,
Like, "What the hell is this raggedy bum?"

But I don't give a damn, he is my light, my beacon,
For his happiness, I'll tear apart any dog.
I used to be a shadow, an invisible darkness,
Now for Thomas, I will become a wall.

Because then I met, damn, this one guy,
And I understood: he's mine, damn, no one is more important.
For Thomas, I'll rip someone's throat out, I swear,
And if it comes to it, for him, the bastard, I'll give my soul,
I'll melt like a candle, yes, melt like a candle.
