Nightcore - For the Love of a Daughter lyrics

Four years old
With my back to the doorAll I
Could hear was the family war
Your 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 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 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
