i missed out on hearing this song for so long!! i used to listen to enchant on repeat on my ipod, such a formative album for me... and 16 years later i get to hear this for the first time!! what a gift!
"Willow" Willow, weep for me Bow your tallest tree Down to the infamous hands Of someone no one understands I'm not unique in this It's based on none but my mistake At night I lie awake Thinking of all the hearts I'd happily break It's cruel I know At least they tell me so Well someone lock me up and throw away the key Because I'm not ashamed, oh no Oh, willow That I only write love songs To those whom I don't love I only reach for him Who's tied to someone else's glove That which I hold inside Which I admire and deride Which I protect and hide is yours Willow, weep for me Don't think I don't see This life I'm living in two But still it's something I must do I'm not unique in this Nor am I special, sweet or kind I court a thousand smiles Yet I keep my own to hide behind It's cruel I know At least they tell me so Well someone lock me up and throw away the key Because I'm not ashamed, oh no Oh, willow That I only write love songs To those whom I don't love I only reach for him Who's tied to someone else's glove That which I hold inside Which I admire and deride Which I protect and hide is yours Slander and distension They're parlor games to me Papers overrun with lies too mad to mention You say they never hurt you No consequence, I'm happy We're much too far above it all But oh no, that's not true These wicked pastimes take their toll These tyrant vices break your soul Deliver me from all I am And all I never want to be I love you (Oh willow, willow, willow) Doubt me not Rewrite this plot for all to see And I only write love songs To those whom I don't love I only reach for him Who's tied to someone else's glove That which I hold inside Which I admire and deride Which I protect and hide is yours Bend your branches to the ground and hold me close Let me harmonize with all we knew Share your sympathy and weep for me Oh, willow, heal the hearts I've broken Make me pure and start my song anew For I only write love songs To those whom I don't love I only reach for him Who's tied to someone else's glove That which I hold inside Which I admire and deride Which I protect and hide is yours
She isnt known to a lot of people thanks to America ignoring her talented art in favor of their ripoff so-called artist Lady Gaga, who basically stole her style and Americanized it. "Barf!" That's right people.. Emilie Autumn came first! She's gotten a lot more recognition in Europe.
Met her on their release of Opheliac when i was browsing VampireFreaks! ! ! ... VampireFreaks is so amazing in music production, i'll release my work firsthand there! {Funny is, i'm very more inclined to her "Enchanted" work. The feels, you know? Therapy for me. The cute fairy reflexive girl... i dont buy much her "fuck all' i gonna be lesbian" {IS GOOD, but... just my own personal taste} ... so far, Captain Maggot robbed completely the scene for me. And i went to listen "Insects Robots". Sometimes nostalgia gets her, and i'm blissed!
@@Yes-gu2wn The Devil’s Carnival and the Devil’s Carnival: Alleluia! She was absolutely fantastic in both movies, though the second one featured her much more. Alleluia is on Amazon Prime!
Some days I'm Willow, some days I'm What If
Cait Clark I feel that. Though most days I’m “Take The Pill”
If I ain’t Willow I’m Vanessa
Overlooked amazingly talented artist.
This song has a special meaning for me.

i just found her the other day on Pandora and im in love with her music!

"Willow"
Willow, weep for me
Bow your tallest tree
Down to the infamous hands
Of someone no one understands
I'm not unique in this
It's based on none but my mistake
At night I lie awake
Thinking of all the hearts I'd happily break
It's cruel I know
At least they tell me so
Well someone lock me up and throw away the key
Because I'm not ashamed, oh no
Oh, willow
That I only write love songs
To those whom I don't love
I only reach for him
Who's tied to someone else's glove
That which I hold inside
Which I admire and deride
Which I protect and hide is yours
Willow, weep for me
Don't think I don't see
This life I'm living in two
But still it's something I must do
I'm not unique in this
Nor am I special, sweet or kind
I court a thousand smiles
Yet I keep my own to hide behind
It's cruel I know
At least they tell me so
Well someone lock me up and throw away the key
Because I'm not ashamed, oh no
Oh, willow
That I only write love songs
To those whom I don't love
I only reach for him
Who's tied to someone else's glove
That which I hold inside
Which I admire and deride
Which I protect and hide is yours
Slander and distension
They're parlor games to me
Papers overrun with lies too mad to mention
You say they never hurt you
No consequence, I'm happy
We're much too far above it all
But oh no, that's not true
These wicked pastimes take their toll
These tyrant vices break your soul
Deliver me from all I am
And all I never want to be
I love you (Oh willow, willow, willow)
Doubt me not
Rewrite this plot for all to see
And I only write love songs
To those whom I don't love
I only reach for him
Who's tied to someone else's glove
That which I hold inside
Which I admire and deride
Which I protect and hide is yours
Bend your branches to the ground and hold me close
Let me harmonize with all we knew
Share your sympathy and weep for me
Oh, willow, heal the hearts I've broken
Make me pure and start my song anew
For I only write love songs
To those whom I don't love
I only reach for him
Who's tied to someone else's glove
That which I hold inside
Which I admire and deride
Which I protect and hide is yours
Are people just finding out about Emilie Autumn? That's sad she's amazing!
She isnt known to a lot of people thanks to America ignoring her talented art in favor of their ripoff so-called artist Lady Gaga, who basically stole her style and Americanized it. "Barf!"
That's right people.. Emilie Autumn came first!
She's gotten a lot more recognition in Europe.
Met her on their release of Opheliac when i was browsing VampireFreaks! ! ! ... VampireFreaks is so amazing in music production, i'll release my work firsthand there!

Beautiful
So beautiful... Too bad she's not making new material anymore
She plays the Painted Doll in the Devil's Carnival, and that's decently recent! She's in both TDC 1 and 2 and they're coming out with a third one soon
@@odeliaadam TDC?

Is there a demo or b-side album that this song is on?
If there is, I haven't found it in well over a decade.
