Exit Wounds 4: Daddy’s Little Girl

Daddy's little girl
Just a little girl now
The pain so unbearable
That she simply shuts down

She's sitting in the corner
Not a word will pass her mouth
Since the news arrived
She's withdrawn into herself

So much crying
Too much denying
Her delicate heart shattered
Her frail emotions battered

CHORUS:
The point of ruin so near
For the child he held so dear
Can a girl so young survive the loss?
Can her will rise up and bear this cross?
Or for her is all life's meaning lost?

She cries herself to sleep
And sleep is all she wants
It's the only way for her to cope
Her refuge from the storm

Staring at the ceiling
Another day slips into night
As teardrops soak her pillow
His image fills her mind

So much crying
Too much denying
Her delicate heart battered
Her frail emotions shattered
