Hmm, I always thought it was "I'll follow in exile For God only knows how many years" or "I followed in exile For God only knows how many years o.o And I am also pretty sure it is "I'll be with you lost boy, Sneaking out where the shivers won't find you" The S sound you here at the end of boy is her starting to say sneaking. She is clearly only talking to one person. She states "you" and "your" many times. |

Anne said in an interview that these lyrics are based on her own true story. Her friend owned a lot of land out in the middle of nowhere and Anne was visiting. Anne took a walk out into the wild and decided to talk her clothes off, to 'enhance' the experience she was having. To make it more dangerous. She suddenly heard bushes rustling followed by the rattle of a snake. She was so freaked out she ran back to her friends house naked, completely leaving her clothes behind. I believe the story for two reasons. One, it is way to crazy to just come up with and two, She hardly EVER tells the back story or meanings to her songs. Thought I would share that. |
