Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Alone, listless, breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
Young girl, violins, center of her own attention
The mother reads aloud, child tries to understand it
Tries to make her proud
[Verse 2]
The shades go down, it's in her head
Painted room, can't deny 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
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
The shades go down
The shades go down
The shades go, go
Go
