I've watched it all happen
Through my own eyes...
You could pay me a nightly visit
Too young I was, when you always did...
Alone in the dark
She was so scared...
Suppressed emotions for so long.
Now, my soul it starts to kill...
Holding my hands up in prayer,
It seems to have gone unheard...
Remember when suicidal thoughts
occupied your mind...
Screaming at you to get out
Yet all I want is for you to stay...
So I'm drowning again, daddy
and I've been crying again, daddy...
Lost in my confusion
I try to leave it at one last kiss...
Remember the little girl
Who used to run away whenever things got tough...
You broke down my walls
I poured out my soul...
She looks away
Hoping to hide the pain in her eyes...
