Home Is Where the Heart Is
Home Is Where the Heart Is
 Says the teacher to the class
 And one shall always see their true self
 Through the looking glass
 
 Home is where the heart is
 And where one is their self
 Where truth and fact are part of the air
 And there is no need for stealth
 
 Home is where the heart is
 Out in the open, it is cloaked
 Covered in layers of the latest trends 
 Covered up in a hoax
 
 Home is where the heart is
 Where sweatpants and old shirts are praised
 While dresses and suits hide in dark closet racks
 And virtuous, natural people are raised
 
 Home is where the heart is
 Where one feels safest and complete
 But when not at home they are different
 It is someone else the outsiders meet
 
 Home is where the heart is
 And as ties grow closer, another heart catches a glance
 Of what the heart is like inside
 And decides if it should take a chance
 
 Home is where the heart is
 Says the teacher to the class
 And one shall always see their true self
 Through the looking glass
