It's been two years
Since we've spoken last
And you can't take back
What we never had
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 tried 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 bear to let you go
Oh father
Dear, father
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
Four years old
With my back to the door
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 tried 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 bear to let you go
Oh father
Dear, father
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
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?
Oh, father
Please father
I'd love to leave you alone
but I can't bear 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 bear to let you go
Oh Father
Please Father
I'd love to leave you alone
but I can't bear to let you go
Oh Father
Please Father
