Parenthetical Girls – Oh Daughter/Disaster Lyrics 10 years ago
@[SoChloedied:7590] Apparently I can't edit, or I didn't find out yet...
I mistyped and obviously meant that it could be about a transgenre ( young) woman viewed by one of her parents...

Parenthetical Girls – Oh Daughter/Disaster Lyrics 10 years ago
I edited the lyrics and replaced it with those that are featured on the band official website, not sure how and if it works...

Anyway, I always kind of found a very feminist touch to that song,
It could be about the parents of a transgenre woman viewed by their parent,
but it could also be about the pressure applied to women in a general way...

It also seems to be about a mourning...

"your ruddy cheeks will never weather" really sounds like something I actually heard from a mother who lost her daughter...
