True
Willows Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you have ever had a broken heart
If you've been pushed aside with dreams all torn apart
Oh, then you must know that it's cold in the shadow of love...

Everytime I touch myself I wish it's you
Everytime I hurt myself I think of you
By lying to myself I am true
True to you, true to you

I'll be freezing in that shadow of love
I can't believe our only night could be enough
Oh, what can I do? Cause I'll never get over you...

Everytime I touch myself I wish it's you
Everytime I hurt myself I think of you
By lying to myself I am true
True to you, true to you

Everytime I touch myself I wish it's you
Everytime I hurt myself I think of you
I'm lying to myself
I'm lying to myself

I'm lying to myself but I'm true
I'm true to you, true to you
True to you, true to you




True to you, true to you
True to you, true to you

I had an experience in my great-grandparents farmhouse, bought for them as a wedding gift.
It sat empty for 11 years out on the prairie of North Dakota.
I bought it for a song with the intention of running a small B&B.
I was alone in the house and heard what sounded like furniture being moved across the floor upstairs.
I went to investigate and when I reached the top of the stairs I began to have difficulty breathing.
I opened the second bedroom door and I swear on all that is holy I saw a vision? of my great Aunt sitting on the side of the bed in a colbolt blue dress crying!
My Mothers side of the family are deeply religious, so I haven’t told any of them my experience.
I do believe homes can be haunted or negative energy attached to them!
I will never forget what I saw!
Sadly, my best intentions of remodeling the home didn’t work out. (I married and lived out of state)

Fascinating video. I do have to point out that the cross shaped house design is extremely common here and being "inverted" would be true of all of them depending on your direction of reference as they rarely have radial symmetry. That being said, many have forgotten how bloody the Euro-Native wars were in Ohio and Indiana in their territorial days, entire battalions were lost frequently. Native mounds are not uncommon here either.

Being one of my ancestors surveyed the southern half of Indiana for the government, I think it is far to say that we've been here a while.

On a related note... My family's farm house is openly accepted to be haunted, "but it is okay because they are all family." While many in the family have experienced strange things, nothing malicious has ever occurred and none of us have other had an uncomfortable feeling in the house.

The house I grew up in also had many strange occurrences. Unfortunately, I can't say that they were never malicious and didn't take a long term toll.

When I was a kid, it was believed that humans have only existed for 50,000 years, but that number is now known to be more like 1,500,000 years (if you believe the ooparts, far older still). Pretty much everywhere you step, someone has probably died there at some point.

One reason the house was built in that shape is to create a cross breeze inside the home. It's not uncommon, I grew up in Indiana and my parents' home is shaped that way.

Mystery Archives

Interesting, I suppose that's a rational take on why 👍

Lareese Blaque

True. Many homes are shaped like a cross. It's not necessarily upside down.

Justice Warrior 24*7

Hey thanks for that info. I was wondering what the scientific reason was, thanks for clearing that up for me.
