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

It's been 5 years, since we've spoken last
And you can't take back what we never had
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
