Father, Daughter
Little girl so loved by her number one fan
A proud father, he does what he can
A women who has a world of support
Her dad to talk to, a man in her court
Too many drinks deep, he should have learned
His wrath untamed, her world has turned
Hurtful words are just a game
But coming from him, her body shakes
Slurred speech, bloodshot eyes
Dissapointed girl, a man of lies
Once so wise and once so kind
Has nothing left to hide behind
She knows he's wrong, shouldn't drink 'till sleep
But this is her secret, an embarrassment she'll keep
A role model ruined by self destructive paths
A girl too scared to take off his mask
So she lives to believe he is the one
To look up to so blindly, staring straight into the sun
She convinces herself its okay
Until the point he drives his little girl away
