"Daughter" lyrics

"Daughter"

One day, I'll thank you
But right now, I'm just too raw
I am so wired, I'm so tired
Of fighting every little war

I won't live in your fear
Or doubt in who I am
I can't stay
I want to scream out loud

So let me fall, I won't break
I'll take my heart to my grave
And I will breathe under the water
You've forsaken the daughter here
And I won't give up on you
And I won't give up on me

One day, we won't exist
And all the hurt will turn to dust
It is easier to shut down
Than to open up to trust

I love hard, I speak out
I lay my truths on a table
I've been through a thing or two by now

So let me fall, I won't break
I'll take my heart to my grave
And I will breathe under the water
You've forsaken the daughter here
And I won't give up on you
And I won't give up on me

All the open hearts
Are fighting to be heard
In a modern world
Oh, and all the raging tides cannot drown out my love

So let me fall, I won't break
I'll take my heart to my grave
And I will breathe under the water
You've forsaken the daughter here
And I won't give up on you
Oh, I won't give up on me
No, I won't give up on you
No, I won't give up on me

I won't give up on me, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
