For The Love Of a Daughter

Demi Lovato
Four years old Oh, father
With my back to the door Please, father
All I could hear I'd love to leave you alone
Was the family war But I can't let you go
Your selfish hands Oh, father
Always expecting more Please, father
Am I your child Put the bottle down
Or just a charity award For the love of a daughter

You have a hollowed out heart Don't you remember

But it's heavy in your chest I'm your baby girl
I try so hard to fight it but it's hopeless How could you push me
Hopeless Out of your world
You're hopeless Lied to your flesh and your blood
Put your hands on the ones
Oh, father That you swore you loved
Please, father Don't you remember
I'd love to leave you alone I'm your baby girl
But I can't let you go How could you throw me
Oh, father Right out of your world
Please, father So young when the pain had begun
Put the bottle down Now forever afraid of being loved
For the love of a daughter
Oh, father
It's been five years Please, father
Since we spoken last I'd love to leave you alone
And you can't take back But I can't let you go
What we never had Oh, father
Oh I can be manipulated Please, father
Only so many times Oh, father
Before even "I love you" Please, father
Starts to sound like a lie Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
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
