No Son of Mine

But where should I go? And what should I do?
He said, "You're no son, you're no son of mine
I didn't think much about it
Soon I'd have to face the facts
Of what might happen that night?
And I remember when I swore that
But I rang that bell with my heart in my mouth
I rang a bell with my heart in my mouth

The question was how I could keep sane?
Peace of mind was hard to find
Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it
You're no son, ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah

And I never went home again

I had to hear what he'd say

Trying to find a way out
In and out of hiding places
They say that time is a healer
Well the years they passed so slowly
Till it started happening all the time
Things were never easy for me
They say that time is a healer
But I came here for help, oh I was looking for you
You're no son, you're no son of mine
We'd have to sit down and talk it over
Would I keep running away?
And now my wounds are not the same
I thought about him everyday
And now my wounds are not the same
I couldn't stand to hear the crying of my mother
You're no son, you're no son of mine
He looked me straight in the eyes
You're no son, you're no son of mine
You walked out, you left us behind
You walked out, you left us behind
You're no son, you're no son of mine, oh

And I needed a place where I could hide
And you're no son, you're no son of mine"
But I came here for help, oh I came here for you
I had to hear what he'd say
He sat me down to talk to me
And as the time it went by, I lived to regret it
But where should I go? And what should I do?
And that would mean going back
You're no son, you're no son of mine
What would I do if we passed on the street
Somewhere I could call mine
And you're no son, you're no son of mine"
You're no son, you're no son of mine

You're no son, you're no son of mine

Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it

Soon I was living with the fear everyday
He sat me down to talk to me
And as the time it went by, I lived to regret it
He said, "You're no son, you're no son of mine
He looked me straight in the eyes
That would be the last they'd see of me
