I ran from the unloving family, the abusive home
Running wherever my feet would take me, wherever they would go
I was broken, misunderstood, jaded, lost, unloved, heart tainted
Then you came along cherishing me, treating me right
...
So there it is, Claire it is as you feared
All these years of wonder, then closure draws near
A quiet kind of distance, a word I would not touch:
Did I ever know my son at all? Well now I know too much
...
Tell me it's not true
Say it's just a story
Something on the news
Tell me it's not true
...
