verse
Well the key to my survival
The question was, how I could keep sane
Trying to find a 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
verse
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
chorus
"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"
bridge
"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
verse
Well 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
chorus
"You're no son, you're no son of mine"
"You're no son, no son of mine"
"When you walked out, you left us behind"
"And you're no son, you're no son of mine"
chorus
"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"
Well I came here for help, oh I was looking for you
chorus
"You're no son, you're no son of mine oh"
"You're no son" ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah
"You're no son, you're no son of mine"
hook
You're no son of mine (oh, oh)
(Oh, oh) You're no son of mine (oh, oh)
You're no son (oh, oh), you're no son of mine (oh, oh)
