Cols Dom Kev Sue Sarah Martin
The night the girls mentioned my name
Cols kicked them out it drove him insane
Dom accused me of nicking his bike
but I was in Cyprus best man for Mike
Kev backs up the things Sue said
on my side? yeah right don't be so stupid
Susan said sort your shh out at work
believed not me but the paperwork
Sarah was caught and sacked straight away
exactly for reasons not believed when I say
Martin just the same, and I am the victim
isolated alone my name is Nick Trim
do you think it's made up or something I lived through
how's it made up when so much of it's true
you just don't care for the impact do you
Do you think my mates were even mates
Thank God I alone can see their hate
I lost my job to vicious bastards
my mates showed me envious laughter
my mum ignored this total disaster
into the darkness faster and faster
but I'm the sort to never give up
and now I get it my finger is up
I'm not religious but hope judgement day
comes so all can see their true way
Don't say I need help when you cause me too bleed
nobody listened so my writing's therapy
my stories of Durbin are all about me
it was my life and my reality
I was there don't you dare say shut up
those stories of him were my actual life
don't say I've no right to speak of my life
nobody was there to see it f*** up
stories of all them always involve me
I need to speak of my reality
since no one listened you forced me this way
does that not reflect their no love I portray
why would i behave and care what all think
when all the people in my life laughed as I sink
I lived in the black I lived on my knees
working it out was a horror indeed
the worst kind of treatment a man could see
my life, I suffered, I'm standing, I'm free
