For the Love of a Daughter (Demo) (Unreleased) Demi Lovato

[Verse 1]
It's been two years since we've spoken last
You can't take back what we never had
Selfish hands, always expecting more
Am I your child, or just a charity award?

[Pre-Chorus]
You have a hollowed out heart but it's heavy in your chest
I tried so hard to fight it, but it's hopeless
Hopeless (Hopeless), you're hopeless

[Chorus]
Oh father, dear father, I'd love to leave you alone
But I can't bare to let you go
Oh father, dear father, put the bottle down for the love of a daughter
Oh father

[Verse 2]
Four years old with my back to the door (Ah-ah-ah)
And all I could hear was the back and forth (Ah-ah-ah)
I can be manipulated only so many times (Ah-ah-ah)
Before even "I love you" (Before even "I love you)
Starts to sound like a lie (Ah-ah-ah, hey)

[Pre-Chorus]
You have a hollowed out heart but it's heavy in your chest
I tried so hard to fight it, but it's hopeless
Hopeless (Hopeless), you're hopeless
