First Song For The Love Of A Daughter

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

Second Song Father

Father I'm gonna say thank you
Even if I'm still hurt
Oh, I'm gonna say bless you
I wanna mean those words

Always wished you the best
I, I prayed for your peace
Even if you started this
This whole war in me

Father, I'm gonna say thank you
Even if I don't understand
Oh, you left us alone
I guess that made me who I am

Always wished you the best
I, I, I pray for your peace
Even if you started this
This whole war in me

You did your best or did you?
Sometimes I think I hate you
I'm sorry, dad, for feelin' this
I can't believe I'm sayin' it
I know you were a troubled man
I know you never got the chance
To be yourself, to be your best
I hope that Heaven's given you
You did your best or did you?
Sometimes I think I hate you
I'm sorry, dad, for feelin' this
I can't believe I'm sayin' it
I know you were a troubled man
I know you never got the chance
To be yourself, to be your best
I hope that Heaven's given you
A second chance
