Top Comments of this video!! :3
My dad was heavy into heroin and homeless while I was living with my mom. He disappeared and we lost contact, and at the age of 10, I assumed he was dead. 6 Years later we heard through friends he was around, we got the plane over and brought him home with us. He came off the heroin while with us through will power and has been with us and clean since. He is a kind soul, but good men don't always make good choices. To all the people that helped him along the way, thank you from the bottom of my heart, the support and kindness of strangers gave me my dad back.

Thank you Tom for giving us a voice. Been homeless with 17 after growing up in domestic violence. Now with 29 life seems to be ok but I'll never forget and passing by a homeless person my heart breaks. Especially when people say in Germany no one has to be homeless, we have a social state. They don't know and they don't open their eyes to the world we live in

I don't normally comment. After 5 years homeless. I am still recovering from them even two years after having housing. I still don't have a job and everyone beats me up about it. Tom, I use your song to express a faint idea of what my time was like being homeless. I am still to injured to find the words to say to them. So God bless you for making such a real song, with such a strong video. I will admit as a man, your song has made me cry because it feels so good for someone to faintly understand what it's like. Even now a year later listening to it. I still have that feeling. Again thank you. I hope you see this message some day

i was homeless when i first found this song, i was 22 years old living in a youth shelter in Toronto I was starting to become comfortable but still hopeless. I found an oppurtunity to leave it behind and now I'm 26 still struggling to find my place but i have a semi stable place and im hustling my ass off like never before and I have more good days than bad. this song got me through a lot of those bad times and i just remembered it recently, been listening to it a lot lately with a different mindset, it feels good...

I was homeless at 17 and after nearly 2 years of the street, sleeping in cars and in and out of hostels, I finally managed to get a job that offered training and just enough money to pay rent. 25 years later my life couldn't be more different. The demons of those times occasionally still show up but I can control them and my good life now makes it easier to forget. I just say this for anyone in a bad place now and know there's hope. I'm 42 now and already feel I've lived 3 lifetimes, there's still so much to experience, don't give up, don't give in and don't self-destruct. So much more is waiting for you.
