Home sweet home,
Next to broken promises
Hidden cries
Large, fake smiles
And swollen eyes
Home sweet home,
Live, laugh, love,
But we are not meant to live
We will never learn how to laugh
And love we know nothing of.
Home sweet home,
Next to a drunk mother
Holding an empty wine glass
Next to a father
Holding an empty child
by the neck
Home sweet home,
Take away the sweet,
Take away the life,
Take away the laughs,
Take away the love...
And you've got yourself
a home.
