Song lyrics
Please die Ana
For as long as you're here we're not
You make the sound of laughter
and sharpened nails seem softer

And I need you now somehow
and I need you now somehow

Open fire on the needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire on my knees desires
What I need from you

Imagine pageant
In my head the flesh seems thicker
Sandpaper tears corrode the film

And I need you now somehow
And I need you now somehow

Open fire on the needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire on my knees desires
What I need from you

And you're my obsession
I love you to the bones
And Ana wrecks your life
Like an Anorexia life

Open fire on the needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire on my knees desires
What I need from you
Open fire on the needs designed
Open fire on my knees desires
On my knees for you

Yer, Daniel Johns, the lead singer, wrote this song about anorexia, whilst he was suffering the disease himself. He suffered from anorexia for a while, Im not sure how long, but he was admitted to hospital I think

"Ana" refers to anorexia, there is a line in the lyrics that goes like this:

'Ana wrecks you life like an anorexia life'
In the film clip, you should notice also that he is in a wheelchair because he was so badly affected by anorexia when he had it

Hope that clears it up for ya

The song is really touching and just knowing that he has gone through this all makes it more touching cause he just isnt writting a song about what ever, he is writting what he has gone through and he knows what its like. The part 'Sandpaper tears corrode the film' is were I usually break down.

I heard the band was not liking that Sony wanted to release the Greatest Hits album. Because they thought, "we're only in our twenties, we're too young to have a greatest hits album out" or something. and Daniel said, "I wouldn't buy the CD if I was a Silverchair fan".
Meaning? I won't.
