Lyrics for Home is where the hatred is as interpreted by red_chords

Home is where the hatred is Lyrics
A junkie walking through the twilight
I'm on my way home
I left three days ago, but noone seems to know i'm gone
Home is where the hatred is
Home is filled with pain and it,
might not be such a bad idea if i never, never went home again

stand as far away from me as you can and ask me why
hang on to your rosary beads
close your eyes to watch me die
you keep saying, kick it, quit it, kick it, quit it
God, but did you ever try
to turn your sick soul inside out
so that the world, so that the world
can watch you die

home is where i live inside my white powder dreams
home was once an empty vacuum that's filled now with my silent screams
home is where the needle marks
try to heal my broken heart
and it might not be such a bad idea if i never, if i never went home again
home again
home again
home again
kick it, quit it
kick it, quit it
kick it, quit it
kick it, can't go home again

"Home is where the hatred is"

That is one incredible line, so much meaning there, and such a clever play on words...Respect, man, respect

i'm not at all into funk or anything like that, straight punkska and hardcore. but damn i love this song. so much damn meaning to it. "home is where the needle marks try to heal my broken heart." that line got me alot. i got a couple of my friends to listen to it and not try to criticize but to just listen. it was freakin' moving as hell. its amazing, i love this song. anyways, this song is just about how gil scott hated the city he lived in and didn't feel like he could go back, andi think he moved away from all the bad influences later.

Thelastpunkkid, I think its a bit deeper than simply hating 'the city he came from'

Personally I think home is very specific to Gil's own parental home. I think it was a place of great misery to him, which perhaps led him to turn to drugs, which made the situation worse as he was then outcast by his parents and given no support.

" stand as far away from me as you can and ask me why
hang on to your rosary beads
close your eyes to watch me die
you keep saying, kick it, quit it, kick it, quit it"

You dig?

His parents, perhaps conservative and religious, couldnt accept him, they looked on in fear from a distance and simply turned their backs on him until such time as he kicked the addiction.
