Feed Us Your Girls Lyrics Meaning

[Verse One]
This part paints a chilling picture of how society sees young girls as easy targets, almost like food laid out for predators. The girl, like Little Red Riding Hood, is walking alone at night, and that makes her vulnerable. The “wolves” are those who are waiting to take advantage of her the moment she’s not being watched. It shows how unsafe the world can be for girls, especially when they’re alone.

[Pre-Chorus]
Here, it shows how even though the girl knows her surroundings well and isn’t afraid, she’s still judged and put in danger just for what she’s wearing. The red cloak becomes a symbol of attraction for predators. People blame her for drawing attention, saying that’s just how boys or men are. It questions why girls are expected to be cautious while predators are excused.

[Chorus]
This part captures the disturbing voice of the predators demanding girls like they’re food on a plate. They don’t care about body type — they just want to consume. It shows how girls are objectified and blamed for the way they dress, as if that justifies the harm done to them. And with no protection or guidance, they’re left to fend for themselves.

[Verse Two]
This section shows what happens after the harm is done. The girl becomes just another “scrap” on the street, and instead of blaming the ones who hurt her, people whisper that it was her fault because of how she looked or what she wore. It’s harsh and cruel, blaming the victim instead of holding the attackers accountable. And the worst part? This happens again and again.

[Pre-Chorus]
Now it shifts the setting to the girl being in familiar surroundings — the woods she knows well. But it doesn’t help, because danger isn’t just outside. Sometimes the threat is inside your own home. You might try to stay safe or “play nice” to avoid trouble, but that doesn’t always work. People keep blaming the girl, even when she tries her best to protect herself.

[Chorus]
Once again, the wolves are demanding girls as if they’re just items on a menu. They don’t care what a girl looks like — it’s all the same to them. And again, they blame the girl’s clothes for what happens to her, as if her choices are the problem, not the wolves.

[Bridge]
This part pushes back hard against all the victim-blaming. It says the girl is not a thing to be consumed, and wearing something like a red cloak shouldn’t be taken as an invitation. Saying “no” should always mean no, and it shouldn’t be a puzzle or trick. But the predators don’t care — they’ll still attack, no matter how someone looks. The real issue isn’t the girl’s outfit, it’s the people who choose to harm her. But instead of facing that truth, society blames the girl, because that’s easier than admitting the predators exist among us.

[Chorus]
The final chorus repeats the same disturbing demand, showing how this problem keeps going. The wolves still see girls as food, and society keeps excusing them while the girls are left unprotected, blamed, and silenced.
