Cool song, Steve! You have a real blues voice. Your voice is like a mix of Bob Dylan and Tom Waits.
It's very much infiltrated in American society that raising children is up to the parents and no one else, especially not a government, should interfere with their freedoms. However, if we were talking about private property, people can do what they want. But kids are not property, they are members of our community and because of that, they'll participate in our community as such, at a later age. Therefore it's everybody's business. If your tires of your car are borrowed, and you're supposed to give them to someone else, you wouldn't want to slash them, right? Every child needs respect and love and if that's not given, the child gets into a survival mode, which he or she will support with the necessary theories. I don't know how far you've gone in blaming your parents through emotional release but be sure that you carry absolutely zero responsibility to what was done to you by your parents.
In 1991 I had a real serious escape plan, was supposed to go to the US of A. Had everything ready, had sold most of my possessions, bought a cheap plane ticket and was supposed to leave with a good friend, but I didn't get a visa when I applied at the American Consulate in Amsterdam the day before I was supposed to leave, My friend went alone, one week to NYC and got robbed there.
You have any more songs by you I can listen to?

Alice Miller wrote once: "The collective absurdity is the most dangerous of all because we accept it as normal". Every person that I know who has been severely damaged as a child, seeks out other people who have been very much damaged. It strengthens the vicious circle. One of the hardest tings I had to do in my life was saying goodbye to such people and seeking people who were healthy (or much healthier).Steve wrote:Most every life I can think of around me as an adult has been damaged one way or another--and many of them miserably ended--way too early--by the exact same thing--whether admitted or not.
