This song is my favorite song in the whole world, not
only of this album or this band, but of every song that
I have ever heard, this one is on top.

There isn't much guitar on this song, but I have, all the
stuff tabbed for your pleasure.

The chorus riff...
Don't follow it note by note, that isn't the exact amount
of times to play them, but follow that and you will get it.

The words


She's been here so many times before

She can't remember

When she last felt anything at all

But this fear and anger

She stares intently at the door

Listen's for his footsteps

She knows exactly whats in store

And the knowing makes it worse


Floating high above her bed


Staring at her fathers head


Wishing one of them was dead


Floating high above her bed


Staring at her fathers head


Wishing one of them was dead


So this hell could finally end



When he calls her daddy's little girl

She doesn't her him

When he crushes her

She can't feel

Her sreams are silent

Hides in the corner of her mind

While she plays contently

She leaves this nightmare far behind

She escapes inside her dreams



Floating high above her bed


Staring at her fathers head


Wishing one of them were dead


Floating high above her bed


Staring at her fathers head


Wishing one of them were dead


So this hell could finally end


Floating high above her bed


Staring at her fathers head


Wishing one of them were dead


Floating high above her bed


Staring at her fathers head


Wishing one of them were dead


So this hell could finally end


Floating high above her bed


Staring at her fathers head


Wishing one of them were dead


Floating high above her bed


Staring at her fathers head


Wishing one of them were dead


So this hell could finally end...
