For the Love of a Daughter lyrics
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 Yah, I tried so hard to fight it But it's hopeless, 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'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 tried so hard to fight it But it's hopeless, 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
