Autumn, Emilie - Willow Lyrics
Willow, weep for me
Bow your tallest tree
Down to the infamous hands
Of someone no one understands
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
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

Autumn, Emilie Willow Comments
Did M(r)s. Emilie Åutumn say-or-sing/* as-lyrics "I am special sleet", where "sleet" is a form of "rain" ... ?
she wrote this as a duet with morrissey but he said nah so she recorded it with herself
Been a fan since I heard "Dead is the new alive"
this song, as many other of her songs and poems, are so perfectly fitting to my feelings and experiences in a time I thought something was wrong with me. Years later I found out I´m aromantic. Her lyrics fit so perfect to this part of me :)
Oh gods, I've been through the exact same. This song used to be so important to me, I'd always feel bad about myself. Then I discovered I'm aro-spec.
This song describes my Venus in Virgo in the 12th house better than any other.
At night I lie awake thinking of all the hearts I'd happily break..
16 wrong opinions
I don't like all her music (you are incredibly unique, Emily, but some of the darker stuff is a little much for me :)... but oh my goodness. I hear a song like this now and then, and my heartstrings are deliciously pulled.
I wish I could find a copy of this song to download
u do realize there's lots of websites where u can download any song on YouTube for free right? like www.youtube-mp3.org
+Emily Kavanagh search on google "youtube to mp3 converter" and click the first link. Copy the url of this video and then paste it into the bar on the page and follow the instructions from there
when I first heard this song, I never thought I could act this way
but now, as I look for a song to perfectly describe my current situation... this is the first thing that comes to mind
guess I was wrong
This reminds me of Madam Red
Her love for Ciels father... then her sister takes him e.e /stabs the sister/

those 6 people dont understand art
6 people are deaf
Bryanna Mohan 18 now buddy
Screenshot it !
Does anyone know where I can find an instrumental/off vocal for this? I've tried looking but all of the one's I've found sound completely different.
Sorry if this has already been asked, but when is this from? It sound like it's from the Enchant era but I'm not sure..
My name is Willow.
This literally sounds like heaven
screenshot it
There is a free (and EA approved) download on batteredrose(dot)com
IF YOU ADD THE RAINY MOOD. YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A GOOD TIME
Wow, I just found this... This is absolutely exquisite. I love this woman more than is healthy.
so gorguse! like every thing els about Emilie
not to mentchen the beautiful vid^^
were can I get this song?????? I cant find it anywere!!!
Aimini.net
where can i find this song. I've looked on amazon, but it's just an instrumental mix
God only knows why she never released this, it's beautiful...
Yeah, it's a completely different song. Willow on Laced/Unlaced is an instrumental violin track.
i looked it up and there's a song called Willow on Laced/Unlaced. does that mean its a different version??
It was never released on an album, and the closest to this style would be her album Enchant.
what album is this on, and which album of hers has the most songs that sounds like this?
i can hear an influence sometimes in the melody :)
is it depeche mode - somebody i can hear there?
Ich liebe Emilie Autumn so sehr.
Jedes ihrer Lieder ist ein Kunstwerk für sich. <3
and then i was like what dislikes
Sorry, I found the pic years ago... Try photobucket...
can you send me the link for the picture please?
Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn.
wow MOOD
This song has always reminded me of Scarlett O' Hara.
I do! =)
EA AND MORRISSEY DUET. OH YES. I hope this won't stay just a perfect daydream.
I love this song :) I think the lyrics would be easier to read though if they were white... great background!!! <3
I wish Morrissey did decide to duet this with her. If that was indeed true, either way, it would be awesome.
this song got me mesmerized the whole time, LOVE 3:43 to 4:20 BEST part
Can anyone tell me what release this is on? It is my understanding that the one on the By The Sword EP is the baroque song and not this one...
@Flylicious84 Thank you :) It's now downloaded to my computer! I have so much ugly fonts on my computer, but a least I have this beautiful font now! :) Oh, and I think I will subscribe to you, because you seem to have many well done EA lyric videos! :)
@ADevilFromHeaven It's the English font...
What a beautiful font you've used for this lýric video? May I ask what it is called?
@chelmoekilljoy That is exactly how she's always made me feel.
Tanith~
@ColdestBeauty taking arrows in the knee was around longer than Skyrim <3

@Wharwulif Why, are you interested?
@Wharwulif <3
@alice7357 google the website Battered Rose, there's an MP3 download there
@ColdestBeauty Not if I marry him/her first! XD
@alice7357 use an online youtube converter
where can i download this?...i can find the instrumental vesion but i want the vocal one...
@NoxAeterna6 It's not released... So sad. But you can download it on some of her fansites.
I don't know how I've lived without ever hearing this song, it's so beautiful! I love it very much!
Emilie, don't feel so bad. I would happily break a lot of hearts too. This song is so beautiful and she's amazing!! :D
@xXxPillzettexXx I <3 ya to chika XD
@demonofdarkness911 lol chica i love u
hahaha i know the person who wrote this song! hahaha -proud-
@THEORYofMEtari8kitti i know, i was saying to karrie kalamity that the willow in the album laced unlaced which he/she talk about is a violin instrumental song, different from that one
I love this song... but do you know if it was ever released? I can't find it :/ :'(
Somehow Emilie can break my heart and mend it at the same time.
@StorybookDisneyDoll I wish I was still practiced with transcribing, I'd do it for you if I still had my piano. :( Sorry!
This song is beautifully poetic. I sit here with both awe and admiration for these lyrics.
@KarrieKalamity no if u really listened to it, u would know that isn't that willow, but a strumental track
@rainbowheydrich uhm..she DID release it. It's on the "laced" side of Laced/Unlaced
0 dislikes!!!!!! Thats how its done! Yeer!! :D I love this!!! Good work with the picture and the lyrics and all. Thumbs op! :)
i love this!! <33
This has to be my favourite song of hers. It's too bad she never released it. =/
beautiful picture. beautiful lyrics. beautiful song. <3
