The band has continued to exist without breaking up since their formation, although the music has moved away from pure psychedelic rock into folk, rock, gospel and soul territories. Members have also changed. The marriage of Annisette and Thomas Koppel has been the core of the band through the years. Thomas Koppel died on February 25, 2006, but the band continued and has released the album "Universal Daughter" in 2007.

Homeless
The Savage Rose Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To deny what I feel
Got no reason
To hide the truth I see
All my love for life
The people of the world
Screams within my heart
I'm homeless now
I've been homeless too long
Homeless now
Homeless is my song
Trapped in evil lies
And witness to a crime
Oh don't obey
Don't let the fear tear you down
Mother of the sea
Rescue my baby rescue me
Small boats sailing away
On waves of hopes and dreams
I'm homeless now
I've been homeless too long
Homeless now
Homeless is my song
Homeless
I've been homeless too long
Homeless now
Oh homeless is love
Oh oh little angels
Washed up on the shore
You'll sing in me forever
You'll shine forever
Forever and ever...
For me ...and everyone
I'm homeless now
I've been homeless too long
Homeless now
Homeless is my song
Homeless
I've been homeless too long
Homeless now
Oh homeless love
The Savage Rose's song "Homeless" is a poignant reflection on the human condition of not belonging. The singer begins by admitting that they have no reason to deny their feelings or mask their perceptions of the world as they see it. The intense love that they have for life and the people in it causes them to feel trapped, as if they are a bird in a cage with clipped wings. They are homeless, wandering in a world that is often full of evil lies and crimes that are witnessed but not acted upon. The singer encourages listeners not to let fear take hold and tear them down.
The second half of the song shifts towards a plea for help, particularly towards the "Mother of the sea" who is asked to rescue not just the singer, but also their metaphorical baby. The image of small boats sailing away on waves of hope and dreams creates a sense of unity and shared aspirations. The haunting chorus repeats, driving home the message that this state of homelessness is not just an isolated experience, but also a transcendent one- it is a song of love that has grown out of years of wandering and searching.

Mother of the sea
A personification of the ocean
Rescue my baby rescue me
Help me and my loved ones in trouble
Small boats sailing away
The hope and dreams of people leaving
On waves of hopes and dreams
The hope and dreams are the source of the boats' motion
Oh oh little angels
An expression of tenderness
Washed up on the shore
Beached on the shore
You'll sing in me forever
I will remember you forever
You'll shine forever
You will always be radiant in my memory
Forever and ever...For me ...and everyone
For all eternity, for me and all who listen to my song
Homeless love
A love that is without a home
