Daddy's Prize

The innocence in her heart,
Dying away in her eyes.
The memory of a laugh,
Fading away with the times.
And she whispers,
She screams,
Invisible,
To those seen,
To those seeing.

Daddy's prize was a kiss, a cry,
Now haunting visions keep her up at night.
He took the colours, left just black and blue,
And the red stains staining the mattress too.

The fire in her heart,
Burning down to smoke.
The gift of time,
Burdening her hopes.
And she whispers.
She screams,
Invisible.
To those seen,
To those seeing.

Daddy's pleasure was a kiss, a cry,
Now haunting visions keep her up at night.
He took the colours, left just black and blue,

And the red stains staining the mattress too.

She screams out for help,
She calls out for love,
Hidden by glass,
Hidden and crushed.

Daddy's prize was a kiss, a cry,
Now haunting visions keep her up at night.
He took the colours, left just black and blue,
And the red stains staining the mattress too.
