Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Alone, listless
Breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
Young girl, violins
The center of her own attentions
And now, mother reads aloud
Child tries to understand it
Tries to make her proud, yeah
[Verse 2]
The shades go down into her head, painted room
Can't deny that there's something wrong
[Verse 3]
Don't call me daughter, not fit to, the picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to, the picture kept will remind me
Don't call me
[Verse 4]
She holds the hand that holds her down
She will rise above
[Verse 5]
Don't call me daughter, not fit to, the picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to be, the picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to, the picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to, the picture kept will remind me
Don't call me
[Verse 6]
They want a lot of me
When he was born, now
But his mother's wide grin still hears tomorrow
Do no wrong
So clean-cut
Dirties his hands, it comes right off
Police man
Police man
Yeah
