Your home is where you're happy
It's not where you're not free
Your home is where you can be what you are
'Cause you were just born to be

Now they'll show you their castles
And diamonds for all to see
But, they'll never show you their peace of mind
'Cause they don't know how to be free

So burn all your bridges
Leave your whole life behind
You can do what you want to do
'Cause you're strong in your mind

And, anywhere you might wander
You can make that your home
Just as long as you've got love in your heart
You'll never be alone

Just as long as you've got love in your heart
You'll never be alone
You'll never be alone.

    badass song... a little cultish... but very badass. Manson had some shit goin for him, hes got some good tunes, easy metaphors to come up with, but still good tunes, too bad he went crazy...

    It's a very simple song, but the message is strong and wonderful. I love this song - it makes me very happy about being what and who I am, and it makes me happy about life in general!

    It's about using *love* as some sort of pass for being self-centered, and calling it freedom. "So burn all your bridges" + "Just as long as you've got love in your heart" = DOES NOT COMPUTE. Also: Now they'll show you their castles And diamonds for all to see But, they'll never show you their peace of mind 'Cause they don't know how to be free is a non sequitur if I've ever seen one.
