Intro

Verse 1

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?

Refrain

 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

Chorus 1

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

 Post Chorus:

Verse 2

 It’s been 5 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

(Repeat Refrain)

Chorus 2

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

Bridge

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

Chorus 3

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
