Cinder Daddy Lyrics

Daddy Lyrics

Four o'clock this morning

That familiar noise

End of bedtime stories

I've put away my toys



I'm not afraid of shadows

Don't look under the bed

Headlights on the ceiling

Are passing by instead



And now I sit here crying

And I'm trying to be strong

Now that daddy's gone



Four o'clock this morning

Close the window blinds

I don't believe my brother

That you left us all behind



So where were you this evening

Dinner's empty chair

Mommy stared in silence

Daddy, don't you care



Alone and left to hunger

What it was I did so wrong

Now that daddy's gone

Oh now that daddy's gone



Four o'clock this morning

I lie awake alone

Time has taken over

Now that I'm gone



Today I found old pictures

Of painful memories

I recall a child screaming

"Where's my daddy, please?"



And all that I remember

Is what I call my own

Now that daddy's gone

Now that daddy's gone

Now that daddy's gone



Daddy, where'd you go?
