Hometown

Hope has left, but he's still dreaming The dreams fade away Strength has gone, but he's still wishing But wishes turn to dust He burns inside With a promise in his eyes, he's forced to smile He knows all the good things have flown away He lives on the 5th, with his cardboard bed He shits his pants and begs for coins Pride has left him, he has no choice He says, "One day, one day, I'll have it all But until then, the 5th is my home" Hope has left, but he's still dreaming The dreams fade away Strength has gone, but he's still wishing But wishes turn to dust Many feet passing by He says, "Merry Christmas," with a tired smile But feet won't turn, they're to shy to reply, hmm Homeless in his hometown, and no one would cry for him Hope has left, but he's still dreaming The dreams fade away Strength has gone, but he's still wishing But wishes turn to dust Hope has left, but he's still dreaming The dreams fade away Strength has gone, but he's still wishing But wishes turn to dust
