Home

Home is where the heart is
BULLSHIT!
Home is where all the bad things happen to you
all the things at make you heart heavy and sad
Home is the last place anyone should want to be.
The world is out ther
Where new starts abound
With new friends who haven't learned to hate you yet.
The grass is always greenber on the other side of the globe
where those who know you can't hunt you down.

"Home is where if you have to go there they have to chain you up"
Can't remember where that quote came from, but fitting <g>


I like this, although it sems like it could be extended a bit. Kinda 
liek youve started to make a good argument then stopped before ya 
really got rolling.

"new friends who haven't learned to hate you YET" (emphasis added)

Very dark.  The words of someone who cannot imagine anything but
failure.  With expectations like these, who needs enemies?
