About

Daisy is the ninth song and the title track of Brand New’s 2009 album Daisy. It uses an allusion to Charlotte Elliot’s hymn “Just As I Am” as well as a number of metaphors to convey Jesse Lacey’s sense of purposelessness as he looks at humanity from the perspective of Christianity.

Daisy Lyrics

[Intro: ?]
And we sing this morning
That wonderful and grand old message
I don't know about you but I never get tired of it
Number 99: Just As I Am

[Verse 1: Jesse Lacey]
I'm a mountain that has been moved
I'm a river that is all dried up
I'm an ocean nothing floats on
I'm a sky that nothing wants to fly in
I'm a sun that doesn't burn hot
I'm a moon that never shows its face
I'm a mouth that doesn't smile
I'm a word that no one ever wants to say

[Break: ?]
I-I don't wanna be
He wasn't fighting anybody when he was on a shelf
I saw him in my dream

[Verse 2: Jesse Lacey]
I'm a mountain that has been moved
I'm a fugitive that has no legs to run
I'm a preacher with no pulpit
Spewing a sermon that goes on, and on, and on

[Refrain: Jesse Lacey]
Well if we take all these things and we bury them fast
(And on, and on, and on, and on, and on)
And we pray that they turn to seeds, to roots, and then grass
It'd be all right, it's all right
It'd be easier that way
Or if the sky opened up and started pouring rain
Like he knew it was time to start things over again
It'd be all right, it's all right
It'd be easier that way

[Outro: Jesse Lacey]
(You've done a lot for His sake)
Well if we take all these things and we bury them fast
(But you will dole this out)
And we pray that they turn to seeds, to roots, and then grass
(We don’t know our rights from our wrongs)
It'd be all right, it's all right
(So, release the flood)
It'd be easier that way
(But don't say you won't be dead to me)
Or if the sky opened up and started pouring rain
(We're done romancin' all the good there would be)
Like he knew it was time to start things over again
(We're done with safeties and cuffs)
It'd be all right, it's all right
(So, release the flood)
It'd be easier that way
