Array ( [sid] => 98669 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Your Dead to me. [time] => 2005-06-19 23:27:47 [hometext] => I had been a bastard, disowned and unloved, then I got adopted. [bodytext] => My sister calls you up
and you tell her all these lies.
Its been seven years
and still the pain is stabbing my inside.

You say youve always loved me;
from the day Id been born
till the day you die.
If only I could believe it
I might live a different life.

How am I supposed to say "I love you"
when you havent been here by my side?
You didnt help me up
every time I fell and cried.

You could have shown you loved me
I could have been in your life.
You could have quit the drugs
and be standing at my side.

I dont need you in my life,
not since I was at the age of four.
I dont need you here today
I have a father to call mine.
