Daisy Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I pack my things, time to get going
And hitched a ride into the ocean
Oh, I know I should get away, get away
I pack my shit, time to hit the road
And drove my car into a black hole
Oh, I know I should but I don't wanna change

[Pre-Chorus]
I need to hold her, I need to touch her
I need to hold her, I need to touch her

[Chorus]
They're shooting at me, grinning through their teeth
Not hitting a thing
Despite what it might mean, I'm not worrying
Grinning through my teeth

[Verse 2]
My winter lake house is freezing cold
And my polar bear don't do what he's told
Oh, I know I should get away, get away

[Pre-Chorus]
I need to hold her, I need to touch her
I need to hold her, I need to touch her

[Chorus]
They're shooting at me, grinning through their teeth
Not hitting a thing
Despite what it might mean, I'm not worrying
I'm not worrying
They're shooting at me, grinning through their teeth
Grinning through my teeth

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Being indecided rules; Nobody will ever touch you ("Not hitting a thing"). You can –and will– constantly change directions; You're ahead always, leaving them at a loss: "Grinning through their teeth". This indecisiveness might catch up with you through the regret of implicitely changing your passions ("I need to hold her, I need to touch her"). In the process even your "polar bear" (who never seemed to care ;-) will stop following you're lead (nobody takes you serious-serious?). You'll have good laughs over all that happened, but it will hurt sometimes, that no one will ever touch you... "Grinning through my teeth".
