  Dear Mother,

            
 can you hear 

   
me whining?
            
  It's been th

            
ree whole week

             
s since that I

             
 have left you

  
r home
            
  This sudden 

            
fear has left 

   
me trembling
            
  'Cause now i

            
t seems that I

            
 am out here o

     
n my own
            
And I'm feelin

     
g so alone

            
Pay attention 

            
to the cracked

            
 streets, and 

       
broken homes
            
  Some call it

            
 slums, some c

       
all it nice
            
I want to take

            
 you through a

             
 wasteland I l

             
ike to call my

       
 home
           
  Welcome to P

                    
aradise   

          
  A gunshot ri

              
ngs out at the

 
 station
          
  Another urch

              
in snaps, and 

            
left dead on h

   
is own
            
  It makes me 

            
wonder why I'm

 
 still here
            
  For some str

            
ange reason it

            
's now feeling

         
 like my home
            
And I'm never 

      
gonna go

 since that I 

              
have left your

 
 home
            
  It makes me

 still here
            
  For some str

's now feeling

         
 like my home
            
And I'm never
