>>>
Junky  walking thru the twilight
I'm  on my way home
I  Left 3 days ago
But  no-ne seems to know i'm gone
Home  is where the hatred  is
Home  is filled  with pain
and  it might not be such a bad idea
 if i never  went home again...
/9
 Stand as far away from me as you can and ask me why
/9
 Hang on to your rosary beads, close your eyes to watch me die
/9
 You keep saying "kick it, quit it" but did you ever try?
To  turn you sick soul out inside  out
 So that the world,  So that the world  can watch  you die
 break>>>>>>>>>>
Home  is where I live inside
 My white powder  dreams
Home  was once an empty vacuum,
 thats filled now with my silent  screams
Home  is where the needle  marks
Try  to heal my broken  heart
and  it might not be such a bad idea
 if i never  went home again...
