With a dollar in my hand Left standing all alone Arguments that never end But when we were at home We'd talk of things we knew When we went to school In a place so dark and grey But our friends would never stay for long We covered it up when they started to fight Slamming doors and shouting at night Set the table ready for four But Mum and Dad don't talk anymore Making up jokes, hoping they won't start Yes this is Home Sweet Home With the money running out At my school desk I would dream And the spoken word today Will leave each other cold With the problems cutting deep A frustrated person screams In the morning tensions rise And you scream out loud and you Hide your eyes
