here is how i relate to this song. i will list the lyrics in quotations then below each one i will describe how i relate
"Happiness hit her, like a train on the track
coming towards her, stuck still no turning back"
my boyfriends child's mother always wanted a kid. rumors have it she wanted one with someone rich to get lots of money. well she got her child and she cant turn back on what she wanted
"she hid around corners, and she hid under beds
she killed it with kisses,and from it she fled"
my boyfriend thought she wanted to be friends...she sucked hI'm in with friendship, he slept with her, got prego then he didn't hear from her for 9 months. child was born now he pays 1,000 dollars a month for support (he has his daughter half the week)
"The dog days are over
the dog days are done
the horses are coming so you better run"
YES his daughter is Finlay 18 NO MORE SUPPORT! (shes really 4 but this line give us inspiration to fight through the next 14 years because one day it WILL be over. although we don't want his daughter to grow up. it will be sad...but the only good thing coming out of her being 18 is he can Finlay be free
"run fast for your mother
and fast for you father
run for your children
for your sisters and brothers
leave all your love
and your loving behind
you can't carry it with you
if you want to survive"
his child mother lives with her parents and is 30 years old. works 20 hours a week and really relies on her parents to raise her child. wait till the support stops then she will REALLY have to run super fast for her mommy and daddy! "if you want to survive" what happened to the mothers when the child support stops and the child is now an adult? you will have to learn how to survive on your own
"And I never wanted anything from you
Except everything you had"
my boyfriend didn't want anything from her. his dream was to get ride on his debt and life free with his daughter. now she is living his dream with all his money
"Happiness
it hurt
like a bullet, in the back
struck from a ...great height
by someone who should know better"
they had a one nite stand she became prgo and my boyfriend should have known better than to sleep with her by the rumors he heard
and that sums it up.....if you cant relate to the song just listen to the corus and I'm sure u will like it
