Pretty sure this song describes a fascination Timothy Treadwell, the subject of the documentary "Grizzly Man". Treadwell lived among wild grizzly bears in Alaska before being killed by one in 2003. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy_Treadwell
Most of the references to Alaska, grizzlies and to the name Timothy are pretty self- explanatory. The lyrics about playing with foxes also match up with footage from Grizzly Man. "Into the wilderness, away form the loneliness" parallels the portrayal of Treadwell as an outcast, living among bears because he preferred the wilderness to the life he had left behind.
Oh wow. I'm so glad someone with some insight commented on this song because I've been wondering and I would have NEVER known this!!!!! Amazing. I just love this song. The lyrics were so mysterious to me. They're almost more mysterious now that I have clear cut imagery and this tragedy of this guy being killed by the bears she's singing about ... eerie. Thank you, er, dickslap.
