Welcome home
those two empty words
spoken in the halls of men and warriors
for the returning triumphant
and those who fell in their quest
are honored at a night bound feast full of meat
but are they truly honored
or is it an excuse for others to just eat more?
Things are never as they seem
but the question of reality is when you walk in the door
Welcome Home
Never what it really means when its said
but yet, in the kind of mind it is spoken
it is believed to have multiple meanings
vainly whored out to the populace to make them feel cared for
screw it.
What about those who have no home?
What about those who wander the wasteland in search of themselves
only to come to the conclusion that they don't exist
Its a slap in the face
red handprints coat my face every time i hear it
the pain of society falls on my heart every time i hear it
When will society understand
In this world of "Me, Me, Me"
how can we possibly say "Welcome home"
when we're so societally exclusive it makes me want to retch
If i never hear the words "Welcome Home" again, it'll be too soon.
Mother Earth is Home to all. Screw the Rich and the uptight, screw those with the resources
Mother Earth Accepts all.
Poor, Rich, Dirty, Clean, it doesn't matter.
believe in this, and the words "Welcome Home" can actually have some rightful meaning.
To that end, i say to you, "Welcome Home."
