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

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

The question was how I could keep sane
Trying to find a way out
