Broke the ice!!
Long walk on a cold night thinking what it would be like if I didn't have a place of my own I was going to and the line "In a Place" came up and and personified it to Ina Plais (long sound for the "I") Real rough, needs additional verses but like where it's going.
If anyone wants to set it to music and or add a verse, feel free just give me a heads up..
Lyrics
In a place = Ina Plaise
V I I just wanna be Ina Plaise Nothing but me.. Ina Plaise Not spoken to, or listening grind Just Ina Plaise, Ina Plaise I’ll find
C Close my eyes and walk the rooms Strike up the band, balls make me swoon Or a 10x10, warm with a roof No frozen toes would be the proof I’m Ina Plaise, Ina Plaise Ina Plaise, a minor loan I me mine, Ina Plaise my own
Bridge Ina Plaise, such a look I’d take one night if I could book it Reborn, old soul, in from the cold A frozen kettle on a warm wood stove
outro No kill-a-chill or biting breeze all be gone, wouldn't freeze and I'd know, surely know I'm Ina Plaise in a place my own.

This is a solid start and a great set of lyrics, you're definitely onto something with these.

Not sure what 'plaise' is, but this sets a hard tone, could use some heavy guitar work!

You set the scene so well, describing how it feels not to have a home, and yearning for one. Excellent

Ah, the things we take for granted. Nicely sketched out from a different perspective. "No frozen toes would be the proof," what a sobering detail, drawing more sympathy for your homeless character. Very effective.

Oh, yes, you have something special going here. I can connect with the character and what he/she is feeling. Love the descriptives. Great start!

Interesting I am without a real home again at the moment, yes I know it’s not real homeless but you do get a bit of the feel. This covers it all very clearly!

Love the imagery this one puts out there, and the rhymes are tight! Nice icebreaker!

I like where this is going too. Without permission or being asked, I cobbled together another verse:
I just wanna breathe Ina Plaise
Feel the calm and let go of the chase
No weight to bear, no ties to bind
Just Ina Plaise, Ina Plaise, in my mind

I like the "Ina Plaise" (unique-reading/sounding) hook line, @kc_ . I see how it caught @mikeb 's eye enough for him to make specific comment on it. Cool!
Interesting story to tell here, kc. Dug @phylo 's verse suggestion below. If you're looking for another, see if mine here works for you:
Always as I roam Near or far, together with me Grinding through life, no family Stuck, yet somehow free
