Story Behind The Song

Candy is a girl. She is also a metaphor . Daddy is a abusive alcoholic. He passes on a heritage of escapeism as Candy has become a heroine addict.

Song Description

The tribulation of a young woman trapped in a cloud of dispair taps into her inner strength to seek a silver lining that is out of reach. Grinding guitars, omnipresent drums and sweet yet uniquely defiant vocal attitude encompass this pop/rock style.

Lyrics

Candys stumbling her way home
on a star-lit street.
In her coat, reached for a smoke,
on a pole she paused to breathe
Been drinking far too much
for a ittle girl should be safe in bed asleep
but Candys safer out tonight
cause Dady wants to beat her.

We all got family
in a perfect world, yeah, yeah.

Candys shoes are in her hands
but her feet dont feel the cold.
Shell break free cause shes got plans
and shes seen him drunk before
so no one else can know,
theres a little girl late in the streets...
But Candys safer out tonight
cause Daddys feeling mean.

"You wont hurt me,
so hit harder...
You wont break me,
Im much stronger
Im much prouder than you."

We all got family
in a perfect worl, yeah, yeah.
