Nobody's Home Lyrics

She can talk for hours

 words don't cover the scars.

 She thinks she's crazy,

 but they've just pushed her too far.

 She runs to the mirror

 Only savior she's known

 Another slap on her face

 Cause nobody's home.

 

 Mother's always working

 Slinging beer on the side.

 Her dad's watching TV

 And he's still getting high.

 She knows he'll be waiting

 Tryinto get her alone.

 She hangs out on the corner

 Cause nobody's home.

 

 All she ever wanted 

 was a place on this earth

 She shouts for a savior 

 For anyone to hear her

 All she ever needed 

 Was hope in a world

 In a world where she feels all alone

 cause nobody's home

 

 She cries for attention

 Hanging on by a thread.

 She can't stop the screaming

 going on in her head.

 Tears on the pillow

 These are things she won't miss

 Nothing to believe in

 So it comes down to this.

 

 Blood on the mirror,

 Temptation is bliss.

 Pills on the table,

 She just couldn't resist.

 Now nobody's home.

 

 All she ever wanted 

 was a place on this earth

 She shouts for a savior 

 For anyone to hear her

 All she ever needed 

 Was hope in a world

 In a world where she feels all alone

 cause nobody's home.
