Well the key to my survival
was never in much doubt

the question was how I could keep sane
trying to find a way out
things were never easy for m~e

peace of mind was hard to find
and I needed a place where I could hide
somewhere I could call mine

I didn't think much about it
til it started happening all the time
soon I was living with the fear everyday

of what might happen that night
I couldn't stand to hear the
crying of my mother

and I remember when
I swore that, that would be the
last they'd see of me

and I never went home again
they say that time is a healer
and that my wounds are not the same

I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say
He sat me down to talk to me

he looked me straight in the eyes
he said:
You're no son, you're no son of mine

You're no son, you're no son of mine
You walked out, you left us behind
and you're no son, you're no son of mine

oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget
it
and as the time, it went by, I lived to regret

it
You're no son, you're no son of mine
but where should I go,

and what should I do
you're no son, you're no son of mine
but I came here for help, oh I came here for you

the years they passed so slowly
I thought about him everyday
what would I do, if we passed on the street

would I keep running away
in and out of hiding places
soon I'd have to face the facts

we'd have to sit down and talk it over
and that would mean going back
they say that time is a healer

and that my wounds are not the same
I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say

He sat me down to talk to me
he looked me straight in the eyes
he said:

You're no son, you're no son of mine
You're no son, you're no son of mine
You walked out, you left us behind

and you're no son, you're no son of mine
oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget
it

and as the time, it went by, I lived to regret
it
You're no son, you're no son of mine

but where should I go,
and what should I do
you're no son, you're no son of mine

but I came here for help, I was looking for you
You're no son, you're no son of mine
You're no son, you're no son of mine

You walked out, you left us behind
and you're no son, you're no son of mine
oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget

it
and as the time, it went by, I lived to regret
it

You're no son, you're no son of mine
but where should I go,
and what should I do

you're no son, you're no son of mine
but I came here for help, I was looking for you
