daisy sits near her house

she can?t force herself to go

her father, a drunkard

sits on the porch today

he lies and he tries to find a way to escape

he drinks and he cries all his problems away



framed by chains

daisy starts to pray

a long life left behind

she slaves to the grind

a life not worth living

she reaches for the sky

ask the Lord to help her

it?s all she?s got



at thirteen daisy runs away

her life has slipped so much

further and further away

dear Father come back and

take me away from this place

no mother to comfort her

today?s her day to pray



framed by chains

daisy starts to pray

a long life left behind

she slaves to the grind

a life not worth living

she reaches for the sky

ask the Lord to help her

it?s all she?s got



now daisy loves her daddy

but she seems to want him back

to the days when he told her

everything was ok

dear Father please help me

and save me from this place

i know that you can come

and you will save the day
