a little girl sits in her new dress
alone on the cold concrete front steps
and crys to herself wondering when
or if she'll ever see her father again

why don't we try harder than last time
too dry our eyes and smile

some day
oh i'll make time
yeah maybe
but not tonight
im trying
as hard as i can
too believe you
don't lie

a girl without a consince crys
alone in this cold bedroom at ngiht
(hahaha)
perpetually asking why oh why
am i so lonely while he sharpens his knifes

why don't we try harder than last time
too dry our eyes and smile

some day
oh i'll make time
yeah maybe
but not tonight
im trying
as hard as i can
too believe you
don't lie

you don't
(you don't)
get it
(get it, no)
this is it you're last chance to dance
you don't get it no
(no)

a father who left his daughters side
and slowly exhales for the last time

some day
oh i'll make time
yeah maybe
but not tonight
im trying
as hard as i can
too believe you
don't lie

some day
oh i'll make time
yeah maybe
but not tonight
im trying
as hard as i can
too believe you
i don't believe you
i want to believe you
don't lie

(dry your eyes now)
