A/N: I had this idea stuck in my head since I had heard the song, so I got the lyrics and wrote it. Tell me what you think.
Chapter One: This is Home
I've got my memoriesThey're alwaysInside of meBut I can't go backBack to how it wasI believe nowI've seen too muchBut I can't go backBack to how it wasCreated for a placeI've never known
Sirius looked at the empty street and thought of everything he had seen since he left his parents house. Love, freedom, support, happiness, joy, laughter, care, and so many more things. Even he wanted to go back, he couldn't. He'd seen too much.
Chorus:This is homeNow I'm finallyWhere I belongWhere I belongYeah, this is homeI've been searchingFor a place of my ownNow I've found itMaybe this is homeYeah, this is home
He looked at the address. Yup, this was it. He had been searching for a place of his own, one he could call home. This flat was it. Belief over miseryI've seen the enemyAnd I won't go backBack to how it wasAnd I got my heartSet onWhat happens nextI got my eyes wideIt's not over yetWe are miraclesAnd we're not alone
He believed that love, happiness, freedom, and joy could happen to him, all that misery gone. He would never go back. He had his heart set on the future, his eyes wide open. Him and the Marauders forever - he would never be alone.(Chorus)And now after allMy searchingAfter all my questionsI'm gonna call it homeI got a brand new mindsetI can finally seeThe sunsetI'm gonna call it home
He got his key out and unlocked the door. He turned on the light and looked outside. He could see the sunset. After all his searching, all his questions, he would finally have a place to go home to. He looked around.(Chorus)Now I knowYeah, this is homeI've come too farNow I won't go backthis is home
Yeah, this was home. He would never go back.
