lyrics

I CAN'T GO HOME

i can’t go home
my place has worn away
something’s gone
i sleep alone
i walk the streets unguarded
something’s wrong

well times may be hard
but friends can be harder
food may be scarce
but nothing’s worse than heartache
i don’t want to complain
i just want something to move me on

the city lights
they don’t look pretty now
where are the stars
why do I work in this factory
i never see the sky i can’t even breathe now
for all the cars

well times may be hard
but i can be harder
this living is a lie
and my heart can tell you why
i got to be leaving
if i’m not learning i’m gone

i can’t go home
my place has worn away
something’s gone
