Born in the breath of a vicious sea
The beast came with the rain
Fallen upon your milky skin
A cunning drop crawled in your vein
Never ever got prepared
So shaken, helpless and so scared
Search the needle in your hair
Gone bald there’s nothing there
Home sweet home
Inside you, eating your bones
Home sweet home
Eyes on fire lips in foam
And it’s called the cold
It’s caught inside you
And it eats it eats and grows
Inside you and it never goes
And it never goes
Two more days the end’s in sight
Tumor days so deep inside
So distressing and very violent
And it kills it kills so slow and silent
Never ever got prepared
So shaken, helpless and so scared
Search the needle in your hair
Gone bald there’s nothing there
Is nothing there
Home sweet home
Inside you, eating your bones
Home sweet home
Eyes on fire lips in foam
And it’s called the cold
It’s caught inside you
And it eats it eats and grows
Inside you and it never goes
And it never goes
And it never goes
Till Lindemann about the song meaning:
Till: Home sweet Home is reason is…it’s a song about cancer so…it happens in almost every relationship. Everybody knows somebody or is related to or lost people. Everybody is in touch with cancer more or less in these days.
Q: Okay. So that’s a pretty serious subject, what inspired you to write about that?
Till: My father died of cancer so…it was a thing to tell about.

The song starts like an acoustic ballad, a bit reminiscent of the “House of the Rising Sun” by The Animals, but later grows into a power ballad. It sounds like a 2015 version of the 1995 classic “Seemann.”
