Daughter Lyrics
It's a shame
What I thought of her
When I saw her
That way
It didn't change
What You thought of her
She's been Your daughter
Since she was made
Since I was made
I've been leaving
I'd say I'd change
But I wouldn't believe it
It's 'cause my legs
They don't forget
When they find a way out
They always take it
Oooh we don't
Oooh we don't
We don't know how we got here
The way is overgrown
Oooh we don't
Oooh we don't
We don't know how we became
this
She has a name
But I don't have to know
'Cause all I'm after
Is all she has to show
We cannot save
We can't even slow
Our loss of innocence
Every little child has to grow
Oooh we don't
Oooh we don't
We don't know how we got here
The way is overgrown
Oooh we don't
Oooh we don't
We don't know how we became
this
What I thought of her
When I saw her
That way
What You thought of her
She's been Your daughter
Since she was made
I've been leaving
I'd say I'd change
But I wouldn't believe it
They don't forget
When they find a way out
They always take it
Oooh we don't
We don't know how we got here
The way is overgrown
Oooh we don't
Oooh we don't
We don't know how we became
this
But I don't have to know
'Cause all I'm after
Is all she has to show
We can't even slow
Our loss of innocence
Every little child has to grow
Oooh we don't
We don't know how we got here
The way is overgrown
Oooh we don't
Oooh we don't
We don't know how we became

Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
reminded me of "catcher in the rye" and the whole idea of letting young one's lose their innocence.
i think it's about lust.
yea smoke signals i totally agree with you. the song is definitely about lust. the first and 2nd to last verse talk about our lust and how we just want 'all she has to show' while the 2nd verse contrasts with how God loves his daughter no matter what. the innocence verse talks about people's inevitable exposure to porn, sex, etc. the chorus questions how people became so lustful.
I love this song, it has a very strong meaning and gives off a very chill sound. My favorite verses in this song is
She has a name But I don't have to know 'Cause all I'm after Is all she has to show
We cannot save We can't even slow Our loss of innocence Every little child has to grow
Correct me if i am wrong but i feel this is about some guy watching porn on the internet. It just saying how she is a person just like everyone else in this world, she has a name, she has friends, she has a life, but none of those things matter to this guy, he just wants to be pleasured by the presence of this girl over the internet.You cant little by little take innocence away. it is all or nothing, every child has to learn their mistakes somehow or another.
