Genesis - No Son Of Mine

Album:We Can't Dance
Artist:Genesis
Lyrics:
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 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 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 now my wounds are not the same
I rang that 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
No you're no son, you're no son of mine
You ou walked out, you left us behind
and you're no son, 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

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

They say that time is a healer
and now my wounds are not the same
I rang that 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
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 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 was looking for you
You're no son, you're no son of mine - oh
You're no son - hi yeah, hi yeah, hi yeah, hi yeah
You're no son, you're no son of mine - oh-oh, oh-oh...

ben misschien een ongewenst kind, maar ben wel een gewenst mens.

toen ik dit voor het eerst hoorde heb ik ff lekker zitten janken

I like this song though it is a bit on the tragic side. I thank you much for providing the lyrics because it tells the entire story of what he went through. This is what most kids fear within their families.

tears to my ears

I used to love this song when I was young. Forgotten about it. Still sounds good
