She wears the brightest smile but there's sadness in her eyes
She longs to believe what her parents say are lies
She knows she doesn't wanna be daddy's little girl
When there's so much life outside of her little world

She longs to see the side of life she's only read about
The city lights are waiting on the other side of town
She can't believe the things she's seen since she made a pact with herself
To run away, run away, run away

She wears the brightest smile but there's sadness in her eyes
She longs to believe what her parents say are lies
She knows she doesn't wanna be daddy's little girl
When there's so much life outside of her little world
