    My wife loves that song, she would hate to hear the real meaning of it...how did they decide to tag this song?

    What did she think it was about? I don't think there is anything in Ed's description there that seems counter to any of the lyrics.

    She doesn't get the lyrics...but likes the song. She may have some idea but not to the description of Ed in the article.

    Daughter blew my mind when I first heard it. I think it was the first song I heard from VS and thats when I knew I was in it for the long haul. The previous songs from Ten held me down and Daughter punched me in the face! In a good way.

    I never really knew the true meaning of it, but it's cool now to know.
