Cover art for Father lyrics by Ellie Goulding

I think this song is about a girl who has never really known her father. Her father has hurt her pretty badly, possibly even been a tad abusive, but what really bothers her is the fact that he doesn't know anything about her. Throughout everything that has happened in her life, he has never been there, and that hurts like nothing else. But she has gotten over that because she's strong, and she has managed to conquer that anger as seem in "So I separated all the things that I have hated with the victories I've won and my biggest one was you."
