For The Love Of A Daughter

Intro: Four years old With my back to the door All I could hear Was the family war Your selfish hands Always expecting more I your child Or just a charity award 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 It's been five years Since we spoke last 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 Light to your flash 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 alone Oh father Please, father I'd love to leave you alone But I can't let you go Oh father Please, fatheeeeeeeeeeer Oh father Please, father Put the bottle down For the love of a daughter For the love of a daughter
