Sixteen, Fifteen, Fourteen Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Athinu 

Cover art for Sixteen, Fifteen, Fourteen lyrics by PJ Harvey

It is Daniel, see the song the chair where she talks about a son. This song could be about a simple hide and seek game, but theres an obvious undertone with the rain and the trees trembling and no laughter in the garden which makes it dark. It sounds like this woman named Erika is desperately searching for her son (?) for instance because she wants to run away? Or her son is lost and she's desperately (unsuccesfully searching for him)

At least thats the story i hear in this song (oh and at this time haven't listened to this song very often yet).
