More to the Prophecy

Please forgive me if this has already been discussed or is
absolutely disproved by canon or JKR. (I did a search, but couldn't
find this particular theory.) I am mainly a lurker in this forum,
but I'm re-reading the series (almost done with HBP) and something
has struck me. I figured posting here would be one of the quickest
ways to find out if my thoughts are silly.

There has been a lot of discussion over the discrepancy between DD
and Trelawney's recitation of what happened the night she gave the
propecy. DD says Snape only heard the first part of the prophecy,
but Trelawney gave the entire thing in the pensieve memory without
interruption, and she claims Snape rudely interrupted them, so did
Snape hear the whole propecy (and DD is lying for some reason), did
Snape only hear the first part but didn't interrupt until Trelawney
finished the entire thing, or is this a discrepancy we just have to
look past?

Re-reading the scene where Trelawney tells Harry Snape interrupted
and the scene after where Harry confronts DD about it, it got me
wondering. Could there be more to the prophecy? What I'm thinking is
that Snape heard all of the prophecy that we have heard, but that
this part (that we've all throught was the entire thing) is only
the "first part" of it. After Snape interrupted and left, maybe
Trelawney gave more information? This would mean DD isn't lying, and
neither is Trelawney.

I know this is far-fetched, but this discrepancy bothers me, and I'm
afraid it isn't going to get resolved in the final book. I know
we've been led to believe that the part LV didn't know about
was "marking him as equal ... power the Dark Lord knows not," but
I've read back through carefully, and I do not remember anything
specific about what LV knew when he went to the Potters' house, only
that he had heard the "first part."
