Daughters

[Verse 1]
Mothers and fathers been holding their hands
They look at their daughters all filled up with plans
They wish that someday she'll grow up like them too
They never expected it might not come true

[Verse 2]
The story was written a long time ago
It's all that I've learned and it's all that I know
And sometimes the colors will turn into gray
And sometimes you'll feel like you did the first day

[Verse 3]
This last year I've mostly been inside a bus
Hoping the driver would take care of us
I wish you were here so you'd know whom I meet
I wish you were here, let me dance on your feet

[Verse 4]
I tend to be frightened when people come near
I push them away with the weapon of fear
And sometimes I think they would run on their own
As soon as they realize I like being alone

[Verse 5]
But somehow you managed to infiltrate me
You showed me a life I considered as free
And people would say "It's not right, what you do"
But I think I loved you, and you loved me too

[Verse 6]
Mothers and fathers been holding their hands
They look at their daughters all filled up with plans
They wish that someday she might fall in love too
But they never expected I'd fall into you
