Yeah, she was 11-12ish when she wrote this (released when she was 12 and her sister, the drummer, was 10). I agree whole heartedly with jellypop's assessment, Especially considering the indie roots of this duo.
"It's just a place where you can hide away and find a way
You can recover from whatever you have done wrong"
Meaning you can go with a major label and make more cash to pay the bills.
"You'll never be discovered, never have to show yourself
And you can hide till whatever time you want to"
As with all major record labels, the finished product is completely at the hands of the company, not the band. They can make you sing whatever the hell they want depending on the type of contract. However, it is my belief that it is just inexperience speaking when she mentions "you can hide till whatever time you want to" because of unbreakable record contracts. Not a big fan of the song personally, or the lyrics of She Like Electric in general because of the lack of dimension, but that is just me being a pretentious snob lol.
