Little girl sleeping in dreams of peace Mommy's been gone a long time Daddy comes home and she still sleeps Waiting for the world's worst crime And he comes up the stairs like he always does And he never turns on the light And she's wide awake, scared to d**h She smells his lust and she smells his sweat Curled in a ball she holds her breath Praying to a God that she's never met Don't let daddy kiss me Don't let daddy kiss me Good night Little girl lies by her daddy's side And she listens to him breathe She knows there's something awful wrong That she's far too young to see And she knows she can't tell anyone She's so full of guilt and shame And if she tells she'll be all alone They'd steal her daddy and they'd steal her home
And it's not so bad when daddy leaves her alone Praying to her God with his heart of stone Don't let daddy kiss me Don't let daddy kiss me Good night Why? Tell me why? The worst crime in the world And daddy lies by his daughter's side And he sleeps both deep and well No nightmares come to him tonight Though his daughter lives in hell For his seed is sown where it should not be And the beast in his mind don't care And the only sounds are the tears that fall Little girl turns her face to the wall She knows that no one hears her call But it seems like God hears nothing at all Don't let daddy kiss me Don't let daddy kiss me Don't let daddy kiss me Good night Oh dear
