Dear Daughter Lyrics

When you took your first breath

It was the happiest day of my life

And as you breathed your last

It was as if I did as well

Dear daughter

Your eyes, they sparkled so bright

You were the light in my life

Now darkness consumes me, where that light once was

A monster came in the night, and it stole away my heart

Dear daughter, my fingers run along your gravestone

These flowers will never bring back what I've lost

And I hope you're in the clouds above, flying with the angels high

And know, my heart is there with you

My mind is plagued with vengeance

In my nightmares, dreams of you haunt

The death I couldn't prevent

Revenge is all I think of

The voices in my head

Of your screams, unbearable

And the pain you must've suffered before your end

I was too weak

Too damn weak to save you

Why does that monster get to live

While you lie under

Dear daughter, my fingers run along your gravestone

These flowers will never bring back what I've lost

And I hope you're in the clouds above, flying with the angels high

And know, my heart is there with you

I hear your cries, I hear them all the time

I see your eyes, their color bright

I miss you, my sweet girl

And I ask, how could someone steal you away

The world will never be the same

Without you here

Your smile, your laughter, gone forever

A still corpse and a name carved on stone

Are all that remains now

Dear daughter, my fingers run along your gravestone

These flowers will never bring back what I've lost

And I hope you're in the clouds above flying with the angels high

And know, my heart is there with you

Dear daughter

Dear daughter

I love you
