For The Love Of A Daughter Lyrics

Four years old with my back to the door
All I could hear was the family war
Youre selfish hands always expecting more
Am I your child or just a charity award

You have a hallowed 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 hallowed 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?
Lie 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
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
For the love of a daughter.
