Four years old with my back to the door
|
All I could hear was the family war
|
Your selfish hands always expecting more
|
Am I your child or just a charity ward?
|
|
You have a hollowed out heart
|
But it's heavy in your chest
|
I try so hard to fight it but it's hopeless
|
Hopeless, you're hopeless
|
|
Oh, father, please, father
|
I'd love to leave you alone
|
But I can't let you go
|
Oh, father, please, father
|
Put the bottle down
|
For the love of a daughter
|
Oh
|
|
It's been five years since we've spoken last
|
And you can't take back
|
What we never had
|
Oh, I can be manipulated
|
Only so many times,
|
Before even "I love you"
|
Starts to sound like a lie
|
|
You have a hollowed out heart
|
But it's heavy in your chest
|
I try so hard to fight it but it's hopeless
|
Hopeless, you're hopeless
|
|
Oh, father, please, father
|
I'd love to leave you alone
|
But I can't let you go
|
Oh, father, please, father
|
Put the bottle down
|
For the love of a daughter
|
|
Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
|
How could you push me out of your world,
|
Lied to your flesh and your blood,
|
Put your hands on the ones that you swore you loved?
|
Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
|
How could you throw me right out of your world?
|
So young when the pain had begun
|
Now forever afraid of being loved
|
|
Oh, father, please, father
|
I'd love to leave you alone
|
But I can't let you go
|
Oh, father, please, father
|
|
Oh, father, please, father
|
Put the bottle down
|
For the love of a daughter
|
For the love of a daughter
|
