Shelter Song

You know you'd never believe it, good friend
Cold friend, scared animal
And I could barely believe it myself
You've got a home

Starving to death
Out by the ocean wall
Shouts in the mist
Scuffling footsteps

I know you think you're all by yourself
All by yourself
You're not alone

I thought that nobody loved me at 10
Sad kid, scared animal
A nasty word and I'm back there again
Can't let it go

Holding my breath
Up in the church house hall
I had my strength
I had my skin and bones

I thought that I was all by myself
All by myself
But I was wrong
Never alone
And now
I'm home
I'm home
I'm home
