"Have No Heart" demo...?

Does anyone know what the deal is about this song? Or what it's about? I know sometimes she writes about fairytales or myths, but I have no idea what this song is about. And it's kind of weird...

Anyone have any thoughts?

Well i have no idea..but that is why it is one of my favorite songs...cause it is not obvious who it is about...so it really gives you alot more room to use your imagination....

Wow...that is very cool.What a good read..i've never read too much Wilde before..his way of writing just sort of captures you...anyway...it's cool to actually know what the song is based on...

Thank you so much for posting that... the meaning behind that song has been irritating me some for time, and now I get it.

Although the song makes me sad now...

Ya, it's kind of a creepy little song, isn't it? But now I see why. Because it's about a creepy little story. Not one of my favorite demos of hers. But very interesting to hear. Do you think she kind of put some of her own life, or wisdom into her song with it? It seems it...
