You could pay me a nightly visit
Too young I was, when you always did...

So I'm drowning again, daddy
and I've been crying again, daddy...

So maybe now you're here,
But I don't need you to dry my tears...

Remember the little girl
Who used to run away whenever things got tough...

Rescue me from my hands
Ready to tear my skin like paper...

Sweet as the words may sound
Gracious as the gestures may be...

Silent girl, in the dark
Don't cry, I was there...

I'll never forget that look in your eyes
Distant and cold, as you passed me by...

Screaming at you to get out
Yet all I want is for you to stay...

Suppressed emotions for so long.
Now, my soul it starts to kill...

Holding my hands up in prayer,
It seems to have gone unheard...

It's been a while since I last spoke to you,
It's been a while since I last wanted to...
