According to lead vocalist Mark Hall, "Does Anybody Hear Her" is about a girl "who is making all the wrong decisions and about how" and how the Christian church is not there for her. Hall began writing the song around 2000 about a girl in his youth group; it ultimately encompassed around 15-20 girls who due to their father not being there for them tried to find intimacy elsewhere, ultimate "[giving] themselves away to the first person who loves them". Hall said that "We [the Christian church] attach identities to people, saying, 'It’s too late to reach this person,' or 'This person here, there’s still some good there, so we should try on this one,' or 'This one’s a lost cause, we just need to get him out of here'. That’s a scary place to live if you’re that person — if you didn’t make the church’s 'list'".
