Lyrics
MY HOME
ANOTHER YEAR HAS GONE
AND STILL I'M ON MY OWN
IN A WORLD WITHOUT FEELING
AND A HEART AS COLD AS STONE
I WALK AMONG THE LONELY
CAUSE THE LONELY ALL KNOW
WHEN THE DOORS ARE NEVER OPEN
YOU GOT NO PLACE LEFT TO GO
(CHORUS)
CAN YA TELL ME WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO LIVE IN YOUR WORLD
AND CAN YA TELL ME WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO KNOW YOU'LL NEVER BE ALONE
I HAVE TAKEN ALL THE BLOWS
ONE LIFE CAN HANDLE
IS THERE ANY PLACE THAT I CAN CALL
MY HOME
THE STREETS ARE DARK AND EMPTY
THE GROUND SO COLD AND HARD
DEAD-BOLTS ON THE DOOR WAYS
AND THE WALLS HAVE ALL BEEN SCARRED
THE SIDE WALKS RUN IN CIRCLES
AND THEY ALL LEAD BACK TO HERE
I LIVE MY LIFE IN DESPERATION
SOLITUDE AND FEAR
(REPEAT CHORUS)
