Story Behind The Song
Song based on the true life story of Gerda Weissmann Klein. In the early years of her life she went through the holocaust where she lost her parents and her brother. This song captures the emotional turmoil of that time.
Song Description
"The harmony in the piano chords is simply beautiful. The singer sounds like she is truly singing from a feeling deep inside. she doesn't have to force anything. Her voice fits well with the music. together they create an extraordinarily dramatic song with great emotion and feeling behind it. The temp and pitches work well together. It's pleasing to the ear. I would listen to this song again. Its a moving piece of art. The composition is complex enough to keep an audience interested, yet simple enough to not over power the singer." -reviewer from Reverbnation-

Lyrics
Destined for despise
I just feel confined
Lost in who I am
Scared of the ignorance
Losing hope is not what I need
What I need is you beside me
Wipe away my fear
Take me out of here
In a mad world that's lost itself
Who cares for nobody else
With hope and goodness, I'll get through this
I know, I know
Lying in the streets
No one seems to weep
Where have they all gone
All of this is wrong
How can you be so far away
All I want is home
Not to be alone
In a mad world that's lost itself
Who cares for nobody else
With hope and goodness, I'll get through this
I know, I know
