Her brother wrote this song for his band but thought it would sound better in billies voice. They recorded it so billie can use it in her dance performance. They put it on SoundCloud so that her teacher could download it but it ended up blowing up. If I remember she made it when she was 13 years old
This was recorded when she was 13 and uploaded to SoundCloud. Her dance teacher had asked for a song to use in a dance performance. The song took off and launched her career. The low budget video was a gift to Billie from her family and was filmed the day after her 14th birthday.
This video was made with absolutely no budget at the childhood home Billie and her family grew up in. They strung up a bed sheet and got some lights and a fog machine or something. The “napalm skies” line was actually written by Maggie Baird (Billie’s and finneas’s mom). Finneas said that in a recent interview. Also at 4:55 in your video, the haunting vocals you hear in the background is Billie singing the chorus but played backwards. Like spinning a record backwards? Finneas was genius for that. It’s almost like the tide rolling back out to sea.

Billie always never talks about the meaning of her songs.
She said in an interview by giving it the meaning you like you can make this song your own.

Thank you ! I appreciate that and I’m happy you’re enjoying my videos
It still blows my mind that she was only 13 with so much talent!
