Lirik Lagu Eldest Daughter

Everybody's so punk on the internet
Everyone's unbothered 'til they're not
Every joke's just trolling and memes
Sad as it seems, apathy is hot
Everybody's cutthroat in the comments
Every single hot take is cold as ice
When you found me, I said I was busy, that was a lie

I have been afflicted by a terminal uniqueness
I've been dying just from trying to seem cool

But I'm not a bad bitch, and this isn't savage
But I'm never gonna let you down
I'm never gonna leave you out
So many traitors, smooth operators
But I'm never gonna break that vow
I'm nеver gonna leave you now, now, now

You know, thе last time I laughed this hard was
On the trampoline in somebody's backyard
I must've been about eight or nine
That was the night I fell off and broke my arm
Pretty soon, I learned cautious discretion
When your first crush crushes something kind
When I said I don't believe in marriage, that was a lie

Every eldest daughter
Was the first lamb to the slaughter
So we all dressed up as wolves and we looked fire

But I'm not a bad bitch, and this isn't savage
But I'm never gonna let you down
I'm never gonna leave you out
So many traitors, smooth operators
But I'm never gonna break that vow
I'm never gonna leave you now, now, now

We lie back
A beautiful, beautiful time-lapse
Ferris wheels, kisses, and lilacs
And things I said were dumb
'Cause I thought that I'd never find that beautiful, beautiful life that (Ah)
Shimmers that innocent light back
Like when we were young
Every youngest child felt
They were raised up in the wild
But now you're home

'Cause I'm not a bad bitch
And this isn't savage
And I'm never gonna let you down
I'm never gonna leave you out
So many traitors, smooth operators (Ah, ah)
But I'm never gonna break that vow (Never gonna break that vow)
I'm never gonna leave you now, now, now

Never gonna break that vow (Ooh)
Never gonna leave you now, now
I'm never gonna leave you now

Makna Lagu Eldest Daughter

Eldest Daughter merupakan track kelima dalam album The Life of a Showgirl.

Lagu ini sepertinya menggambarkan janji setia Taylor kepada seseorang.

Hal itu tercermin dalam lirik I'm never gonna let you down, I'm never gonna leave you out yang bermakna aku takkan pernah mengecewakanmu, aku takkan pernah meninggalkanmu.

Lagu tersebut tampaknya ditujukan Taylor untuk Travis Kelce sang tunangan.

Namun Eldest Daughter bisa juga diinterpretasikan sebagai seorang anak perempuan sulung yang berusaha terlihat kuat dan keren.
