No Place Like Home

White picket fences
Feel like cages
When you're afraid of somebody inside the house ah
All of the dangers
Have familiar faces
And you wish you were brave enough just to find your way out ah

I spend my life wishing that I
Could find the ruby slippers
That take me away in the night

There's no place like home
There's lions and tigers and bears in my room (oh my)
They show their teeth when the light's off
I'd never dare close my eyes
There's no place like home
I know what comes creepin'
When I'm all alone
The shadows I'm seeing are smiling
Right before they take a bite

If I only had a heart made of a stronger steel
Then it wouldn't be so hard for these old wounds to heal
So I build the walls out of liquor and gold
Stumbling my way down the yellow brick road

When you get the nerve to
Pull back the curtain
The monster is only someone who puts power before love

I spend my life wishing that I
Could find the ruby slippers
That take me away in the night

There's no place like home
There's lions and tigers and bears in my room (oh my)
They show their teeth when the light's off
I'd never dare close my eyes
There's no place like home
I know what comes creepin'
When I'm all alone
The shadows I'm seeing are smiling
Right before they take a bite

If I only had a heart made of a stronger steel
Then it wouldn't be so hard for these old wounds to heal
So I build the walls out of liquor and gold
Stumbling my way down the yellow brick road

White picket fences
Feel like cages
When you're afraid of somebody inside the house
