Cover art for 306 lyrics by Emilie Autumn

306 suicides in 6 years

16 suicides in 1 day thats what it means

WZ i love your vid for tis song on YOUTUBE

i think the 1 in 16 part of the song stands for, one of the bodies they found out of the 16 was like smiling or something like that. that's what i heard.

Yes that is specifically what the song says but the story behind the song is about the Seine river. "The river was a popular site for suicides and the disposal of bodies of murder victims.[20] In 2007, 55 bodies were retrieved from its waters; in February 2008, the body of supermodel-turned-activist Katoucha Niane was found there.[20] In the late 1700s and early 1800s over the space of six years 306 bodies were retrieved, the highest number in one day being 16. They were kept in the morgue for many years, and some were never identified."
