Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don't be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
'cause I've seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Could make me love you less
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
So if you're mad, get mad
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well I'm a lot like you
When you're standing at the crossroads
And don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
'cause even if you're wrong
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
And when...
When the night falls on you, baby
You're feeling all alone
You won't be on your own
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
"I'll Stand By You" is a song by the British-American band, The Pretenders, released in 1994. The song is about being there for someone during their difficult moments, when they feel lost or sad, and standing by them no matter what. The lyrics convey a message of love, strength, and loyalty during the tough times.
The first verse of the song speaks to the sadness and tears in someone's eyes, and how they should feel comfortable reaching out for help, even if it means showing vulnerability. The singer recognizes that she has seen the dark side as well, and is willing to be a helping hand through those dark times. The chorus reiterates this message of standing by someone and not letting anyone hurt them.
The second verse continues the theme of anger and frustration, encouraging the listener to express their feelings and talk things out instead of shutting down. The line "I get angry too, well I'm a lot like you" connects the singer to the listener, showing empathy and understanding. In the bridge, the singer calls to be taken in "into your darkest hour," promising to never desert the other person and to always stand by them.

1: That's an after-image or edit of a young child wearing a hooded jacket. You can see the door opens as the figure leaves but then the door is closed without actually closing. The "Headless" shape is because the figure is still in the motions of putting the jacket on, you can see this as the left arm becomes shorter and more rigid. Finally the shape of the head is revealed towards the end of the clip, just as it would if someone was finished putting on a jacket. This has the stench of fake all over it.
2: The creepy sounds heard at the construction site, that's an animal, we've all heard that exact sound before in other videos. The wailing sound of a woman is also stock audio, which we've all heard before. Fake.
3: The "Wisp" in the workshop is obviously faked. The position of the table, the height, direction of movement, consistency of the "wisp" is all aerodynamics. There is an airflow being directed towards the door and smoke is added to produce the wisp, the table is helping that airflow achieve that smooth arc as it travels from one airflow into the airflow of the corridor.
4: I don't know. The movement of the childs arms just before being pulled almost looks like he/she used their arms to lift themselves off the bed. Try it, lay flat on your stomach and try to move backwards without lifting your legs or weight. It's almost impossible, but if you lift your legs and your weight....you can 'Skooch' back a little bit.
Unusual movement? Yes. But not entirely supernatural.
5: Fog and headlights don't mix. Could be anything. Fog can be pretty freaky when illuminated by headlights.
6: There is another boy behind the younger one in the pool which is moving away. The child jumps into the pool nearly hitting the other, that boy pushes the boy away from him (Those hands are a childs) and then he moves away from the jumper while he is underwater. The pusher is even shown to looking back at the jumper as if saying "WTF Dude". It's as clear as day what happened.
7: Cryptids are so over-done these days, throw a stick into the Interwebs and you'll hit a Cryptid. Oh and every Cryptid is now a Skinwalker, because that's how lazy the hoaxers have gotten. Bigfoot = Skinwalker, Jackalope = Skinwalker, Bunyip = Skinwalker, Vampire = Skinwalker, Homeless man = Skinwalker.

Did you see the clip of a lad that walks on the corridor and gets battered by a shadow figure. It's crazy you can see it punching him. I thought this was that clip at first.

Great choice for a main image cover! I just can't find it in any of your videos! Mhmm...

I think number 5 can be explained when they film the shadows the sun is shining and there are other buildings near by and someone could be walking on one of those and casting a shadow because you could see better detail of shadow on the table when they show them looking out the window and down there was no sun and it was starting to get dark that to me is suspicious

Hi MindJunkie... i cant get over how much u sound like Black Ops Amazing are u sure ur not him?
Molly Rutz
For number 2 with the creature on the roof, my mom had eye surgery and her eyes reflect light like a cats if you hit it directly so it is possible to have it be a human nowadays. Just my two cents. Loved it! Thank you for all your hard work!

That first clip with the digger sounds just like a fox calling. The sounds in the second digger clip are Exactly like the sound in a Japanese video I think it was, where the guy heard the sound from outside and threw boiling water onto the spirit outside. It's identical, likely swiped. The ghost cat one, I'd like to think it came back to protect the little girl from the monster at the window ❤
Michael Morris
You are right it sounds exactly like that Japanese ghost with the boiling water. I seriously doubt a spirit will sound that much alike unless it was swiped from another video.
Vakaria
I think you are right! That second one sounds just like the Japanese one.
