Daddy's Song

While you're standing there, I'm standing in a field

In my mind, you can't take that away

Daddy comes to me in darkness not in light

Why I gave you all my love and you showed no mercy

You tried to pin me down with emotion feeling things

A butterfly display, a simple fall from grace

I'm closing down my heart, I'm putting up the wall

Why I gave you all my love and you showed no mercy

Here I sit, looking to the light

In my head I have the peace of mind I've lost tonight

There are flowers here and hills and horses too I ride in my dreams

And I'm afraid I'll have to go back

Go back to the night, Daddy holds me tight

I'm losing my mind, I'm losing my head, someone help me now

Daddy comes to me in darkness not in light

Why I gave you all my love and you showed no mercy

I just want to know, now, what it is to survive

Daddy's song and daddy's lies

I've gotta know, I've gotta know, I've gotta know

I've gotta know, I've gotta know, I've gotta know

I've gotta know, I've gotta know

What it is? How it happened?

I've just got to know, now, what it is to survive

Daddy's song and daddy's lies

I've gotta know, I've gotta know, I've gotta know

I've gotta know, I've gotta know, I've gotta know

I've gotta know, I've gotta know

What it is? How it happened?

I've just got to know, now, what it means to survive

And to live out daddy's lies

I've got to live, I've got to live, I've got to live

I've got to live, I've got to live, I've got to live

I've got to live
