Song Lyrics

She scratches a letter
Into a wall made of stone
Maybe someday
Another child
Won't feel as alone as she does
It's been two years
And counting
Since they put her in this place
She's been diagnosed
By some stupid f*ck
And mommy agrees

Why go home?
Why go home?
Why go home?

She seems to be stronger
But what they want her to be is weak
She could play pretend
She could join the game, boy
She could be another clone
Ooh, whoa ah, yeah oh
Why go home, why go home, why go home, why go home

What you taught me (why go home)
Put me here don't come visit, mother (why go home)
Sting me

Why go home, why go home, why go home, why go home
What you taught me (why go home)
Put me here don't come visit, mother, mother yeah (why go home)
Why go home, why go home, why go home, why go home, why go home, whoa
