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 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 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
