No Son of Mine
Singolo - 1991 - Debaser id 828954

Well the key to my survival
Was never in much doubt
The question was how I could keep sane
Trying to find the way out
Things were never easy for me
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 every day
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 now my wounds are not the same
I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say
Well, 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, 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

Well the years, they passed so slowly
I thought about him every day
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 now my wounds are not the same
But 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
And 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
When you walked out, you left us behind
And you're no son, you're no son of mine

Oh, his words how they hurt, 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 was looking for you
You're no son, you're no son of mine, no

I'm feeling so confused today,
It seems they've changed the rules again,
Cos in my life I'm trying hard,
To do it all so I can remain,
Healthy and sane.

I'll live forever,
Always one more tomorrow,
Living forever,
Always one more tomorrow.

I heard it on the radio,
Too much of what they said wasn't so,
And now we've got to do those things,
That they brought before were so wrong,
To be healthy and strong.

And live forever,
Always one more tomorrow,
Living forever,
Always one more tomorrow.

I know we don't need you,
I know we don't believe you,
You don't really have the answer,
You think you know better,
You think it really matters,
You just want to rule over everybody's lives.

I think I'll change my life today,
Gone are the times of taking care,
And I don't need a reason why,
All I need is all in a day survive in a way.

Or just till tomorrow,
Always one more tomorrow,
Living forever,
Do you really want to live forever.
