Haunted
The Fox and The Sound Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

8 Words that will haunt me until I die
"I love you still but this is goodbye"
Beautiful love dressed in beautiful death
Nothing can stop the chaos in my head
Blackness takes over me
As if drunk from misery

All the battles inside my head
Compile at once no rest till I'm dead
Forever cloudy my resolve
I question all

I hope you know
I wish you all the best
But you created a monster in my head
I'm trying to heal
But gaining no headway
My emotions are dark I fear they're here to stay

So here we are
You left me here

All alone with my demons

I hope you know I wish you all the best
You created this monster in my head
I hope you know My pain may never end
My heart may never rest





All alone with my demons

Those guys are brave going into that school. In my community, the old school was turned into a daycare, but no one will go in the basement alone. Only one house was ever built on that road and the cottager never comes. Never. The only other structure is this really dilapidated old house. Long abandoned.

I did the census there recently, you have to prove no one lives in a house, even if you can see it's abandoned, so the first round you just leave a notification/reminder card, and if it's still there when you go back, you can strike it off your list. I've only been down this road a few times, and I didn't grow up there, so while I knew the house was abandoned, I didn't know who used to live there. There are a few abandoned houses. Who cares, right?

Well, I went to the cottage first, then I decided to walk across to the abandoned house. As I got closer, the tall grass started scratching me, and I felt really hot, and there was this buzzing sound. As I got closer, my skin prickled, and I got this really weird feeling about looking up at the windows. It was raised up so the front had steps up to a porch.

The feeling turned into fear, and this voice in my head was like, "Just don't touch the house, don't touch a finger, don't step a foot, don't touch the house" and it started freaking me out. I turned the card on its side and winged it like a frisbee up to the porch and turned around. I kept walking faster and faster. I was so mad at myself to leaving the car up the road at the cottage. I actually put the windows up as I was leaving that road.

So, I asked people who grew up there, wtf is with that house?? They said that it's been abandoned since the 1970-1980s since they shut down the residential/reeducation schools for Native people. Horrible, horrible things happened in those places. It's why the school basement is so scary no one who works there will go down by themselves. And I've heard about what people have experienced. No doubt they won't go down alone. The plumbing constantly malfunctions down there and sewage has backed up for no good reason several times, despite it being a pretty new septic system that was put in for the daycare.

But this house, it was built for the teachers to live in, and only the teachers ever lived in it. Once the school was closed, no one wanted to live in it, so it just sat empty. Rotting. Idk what's in the house but it's scary as hell and something was warning me to stay away because it's no good.

Since those two buildings are so haunted, it makes me wonder about the person who built their cottage there, and what has happened to make them choose not to use a lovely home on the lake at all. Must've been scared something awful to just leave a nice vacation home vacant.

I'm curious about the house but also no one has been near it in the better half of a century and I'm not really interested in being the one to disturb dark things for no reason.

The man who lost his wife I am almost positive that's all real what he is experiencing. The fear he had there from that one encounter was so unbelievably genuine that I cant help but believe it.

Kusunoky

โ€‹@Lupita Arellano I feel very bad about him. He seems that he hasn't slept His eyes look terrible. Could be these things happening to him, thinking about his wife plus maybe thinking if his wife needs help at the other side. ๐Ÿ˜ข

Lupita Arellano

Does anyone know the person's name? or where is it from?

Cathy Haynes

As this has went on, this poor man looks like he is truly suffering.
I feel so bad for him as it seems to have really done a number on his mental health. So, I believe it's real, too. At least it's real to him.
He didn't seem to start going downhill until he realized that it wasn't his deceased wife.

heather bayless
