Home Sweet Home

Home Sweet Home After school, I go back home I start to warm up and go to my zone My zone is my bright, shiny room It's nothing close to doom The comfort and coziness I own Are all better than the treasures from Rome. But there are people who don't have a home Cardboard for their beds Trash bags for their heads In clothes full of holes Freezing in the cold. I wish them peace I wish them a second chance Support the nearest shelter for them to stay Even if it's just for today Hand them clothes, toys and blankets Give them tinned soup, fruit bars and yummy biscuits. I wish they no longer roam Never be alone Replace the tents with home sweet home.
