Lyrics : For the Love of a Daughter (Demo Version)

It's been two years since we've spoken last
You can't take back what we never had
Selfish hands always expecting more
Am I your child, or just a charity ward?

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
Dear, father
I'd love to leave you alone, but I can't dare to let you go
Oh, father
Dear, father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter
Oh, father

Four years old, with my back to the door
And all I could hear was the back and fourth
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 (Hopeless), you're hopeless

Oh, father
Dear, father
I'd love to leave you alone, but I can't dare to let you go
Oh, father
Dear, father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter
Oh, father

How could you lie to your flesh and your blood?
How could you go where no gentleman would?
How could you do what you've done?
To a wife, and a child that you swore you loved
How could you lie to your flesh and your blood?
How could you go where no gentleman would?
How could you do what you've done?
To a wife, and a child that you swore you loved

Pre
Oh, father
Please, father


I'd love to leave you alone, but I can't dare to let you go
Oh, father
Dear, father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter
Oh, father
Please, father
I'd love to leave you alone, but I can't dare to let you go
Oh, father
Dar, father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter

Oh, father
