Exilia was formed in 1998 in Milan, Italy, when Masha met guitarist Elio Alien.
They have played at concerts with Guano Apes, H-Blockx, Clawfinger, HIM, Therapy?, In Extremo, Rammstein, and Ill Niño.
Their debut album, "Rightside UP", was released in 2000. Their following album, "Unleashed", debuted in May 2004, and made it into the Top 40 in German charts. In April 2005, band member Andrea Ge left the band and Ale took his place as drummer.
In summer 2006 they released their newest album "Nobody Excluded".
During their festival tour, Masha had an accident while the band was playing Milan. The stage was not safe and she was falling down and broke her leg twice. Following this incident the band canceled all shows and played them later in 2007.
At the beginning of 2007 they found a new bassist, Mata, because Random could not play the next gigs (Nobody Excluded Tour) with Exilia. Mata and Exilia have known each other since 2001. They played some shows in Italy together.
The last single released in October 2006 was "Your Rain".

Exilia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They don't know about your world, they don't know
Save your heart, save your soul
They don't care about it all
And be strong
And be strong
And be strong
Paralyzed when you're just one thing, one thing
You need to close your eyes,
Everytime you analyze everything is nothing
You're just a little girl, little girl
In a world they say you don't think, don't know
You've got to run and hide
Everytime they don't mind
And you feel nothing, nothing
Spread your wings to the sky
They don't know but you can fly, they don't know
Don't be right, don't be wrong
Just be everything you want
But be strong
But be strong
And be strong
You're just a little girl, little girl,
Paralyzed when you're just one thing, one thing
You need to close your eyes,
Everytime you analyze everything is nothing
You're just a little girl, little girl
In a world they say you don't think, don't think
You've got to run and hide
Everytime they don't mind
And you feel nothing, nothing
Keep your sweetness where you're going
In your loneliness when you don't feel right
Keep your sweetness where you're going
In your weakness if you're falling down
You're just a little girl, little girl,
Paralyzed when you're just one thing, one thing
You need to close your eyes,
Everytime you analyze everything is nothing
You're just a little girl, little girl
In a world they say you don't think, don't know
You've got to run and hide
Everytime they don't mind
And you feel nothing, nothing
You're just a little girl
You're just a little girl
Keep your sweetness
Keep your sweetness
The song "Little Girl in a World" by Exilia is primarily about a young girl who is struggling to find her place in the world. The lyrics suggest that she feels trapped and isolated in a society that does not understand or value her. The first verse advises her to be quiet and save her heart and soul because nobody cares about them. The lyrics encourage her to be strong, which is a recurring theme throughout the song. The second verse encourages the girl to close her eyes and not analyze everything because everything is nothing. She needs to be able to run and hide every time she feels ignored, and she should not feel anything, suggest the lyrics.
The chorus focuses on the fact that she is just a little girl, who is paralyzed when she has just one thing. The world doesn't think or understand her. She needs to keep her sweetness while going to her loneliness, and in her weakness, she must try to keep her sweetness. The song ends with the final refrain, which once again stresses on the fact that she is just a little girl who is struggling to find her place in the world.

Remember, you're still growing
Keep your sweetness
Stay true to yourself
