Emilie Autumn's Lyrics Trivia Quiz

Answer: Misery Loves Company

"Misery Loves Company" sounds like it's about a relationship, but several sources claim it's meant to be about Autumn's bipolar disorder, which crops up in several of her other songs, such as "Swallow" and "Manic Depression". The song continues "Pray for me, if you want to, pray for me, if you care."

Answer: I Want My Innocence Back

"I want my innocence back, and if you can't give it to me..." This song is probably one of the darker ones on the album. It begins with no actual instruments, and Autumn's voice is threatening. It may not be popular, but the first few lines will stick in your head for hours.

Answer: Shalott

"Cause I know I'm the cursed one, I know I'm meant to die..."The song is based on the poem "The Lady of Shalott" and it is one of Autumn's gentler songs, starting with a gentle sound of crashing waves. For that reason, it's probably one of the more popular songs.

Answer: Swallow

"Filthy Victorians, they made me what I'm made of." "Swallow" seems to revolve around taking the pill for the bipolar disorder Autumn has. The line suggests that she is scared about what will happen if she does swallow, but she doesn't understand why. Her mention in the next line, about Victorians, is a note to her interest in Victorian times.

Answer: Dead is the New Alive

"When the obsession with death, the obsession with death, becomes a way of life." This song has the suggestion that death is inevitable, and in a way, dead is the new alive in Autumn's view because it's death of the soul. The style of the song is quite sharp, compared to some of the others.

Answer: Gothic Lolita

"And I don't suppose you'd understand..." Autumn has been a victim of abuse and attempted rape, so this song may have a lot of truth in it. It's one of the most memorable songs on the CD. However, "My Fairweather Friend" is not on the CD at all.

Answer: The Art of Suicide

"The art of suicide, pretty and clean, conveys a theatrical scene". Surprisingly, while the subject of the song is dark, the music and melody is the most gentle of all the songs on the album.

Answer: Liar

This is probably one of the darkest songs on the album, and considering some of the others, that's saying something. On the outtakes of the album, you can hear Autumn practicing the chorus (sounding monstrous), and then remarking that she thinks her family would be "pretty freaked out" if they heard it.

Answer: God Help Me

This song is, in my opinion, one of the most forgettable songs on the disc. It has been theorized that the song is about some of the abuse Autumn suffered as a child.

Answer: I Know Where You Sleep

This song probably uses a lot of synthetic sound to make it sound as dark and terrifying as it does. It's theorized that this is Autumn's answer to a betrayal by someone she was close to!
