He's always a scene with his stories
Each word cutting deep like a knife
She never knew him in his glory
Just a man who was lost to the times

He's coming home late with no money
Blew it on castles in skies
No, there ain't no fairy tale ending
She ran out of reasons to try

And there's no tears left for her daddy
She's leaving her home tonight
Now she's on her own
And she don't cry anymore
When his promises turn into lies

And she don't really know where she's heading
But she does what she can to survive
When she let's him go
He's not her problem anymore
She's losing the hope in her eyes

The more she wants
She falls further in the dark
The more she wants
She feels angry, oh, so angry, oh

And there's no tears left for her daddy
She's leaving her home tonight
Now she's on her own
And she don't cry anymore
When his promises turn into lies

And she don't really know where she's heading
But she does what she can to survive
When she let's him go
He's not her problem anymore
She's losing the hope in her eyes

The more she wants
She falls further in the dark
The more she wants
She feels angry, oh, so angry, oh

She moved to a house in the country
With a picket fence painted white
She was so far away from her memory
When the news of what happened arrived

Well, he came speeding to find her
After one of his hard-drinking nights
Saw the spitting image of her mother
As he swerved into oncoming lights

And there's no tears left for her daddy
She's leaving her home tonight
Now she's on her own
And she don't cry anymore
When his promises turn into lies

And she don't really know where she's heading
But she does what she can to survive
When she let's him go
He's not her problem anymore
She's losing the hope in her eyes

The more she wants
She falls further in the dark
The more she wants
She feels angry, oh, so angry, oh
