War on the home front

---

**Verse 1**

Concrete jungles, where the lost roam free,

Survival’s a game, but we don’t get to see.

Shadows swallow dreams, we’re ghosts in the grime,

While you throw us your scraps, we’re just biding our time.

**Chorus**

We’re the war on your doorstep, the truth you can’t face,

Pushed under the rug, erased without a trace.

Screaming for salvation, but you turn up the noise,

In this hell of a home front, we’re your discarded toys.

**Verse 2**

Cold winds bite harder than the stares that we feel,

Wrapped in our blankets, they’re the only steel.

You build your high towers, but we’re buried in dirt,

Invisible scars, it’s a world full of hurt.

**Chorus**

We’re the war on your doorstep, the truth you can’t face,

Pushed under the rug, erased without a trace.

Screaming for salvation, but you turn up the noise,

In this hell of a home front, we’re your discarded toys.

**Verse 3**

You’re off chasing shadows in a foreign land,

While we’re bleeding out here, no one gives a damn.

Money for the battles, but crumbs for the fight,

You wage wars for glory, while we vanish from sight.

With flags in your hands, you march off to war,

But the fight on our streets? You just choose to ignore.

We’re the ghosts in your budget, the cost that you shun,

In this war for our lives, you’ve already lost one.

**Bridge**

You think we’re shadows, just fading away,

But we burn like fire, igniting the day.

You can’t shut us out, we’ll claw through your lies,

In this war for our lives, we’ll rise from the cries.

**Chorus**

We’re the war on your doorstep, the truth you can’t face,

Pushed under the rug, erased without a trace.

Screaming for salvation, but you turn up the noise,

In this hell of a home front, we’re your discarded toys.

**Outro**

So hear our screams echo, let the darkness ignite,

In this fight for our worth, we’ll step into the light.

No more swept under, we’ll tear down the walls,

In this war on the home front, we’ll answer the calls.

In this battle for our lives, we’ll leave our mark.
