    The smiles as she walked in the room
    Have all turned into frowns am I too quick to assume
    That the love is no longer in bloom?
    The tantrums and the tears play a very different tune
    To what they did before, her heads red raw
    And the ending doesn't sound like they're happiest around
    When you sobbed before it felt much more like the product of a squabble
    Now there's reason for it to be something more
    And no would be, oh, it's uncertain
    Whether the curtain has shut for good
    She says, "see if it's still raining
    I'm not dressed for it and if you loved me"
    And I interrupt to receive the scowl and stare
    But still decided to stop her there
    Would it be outrageous to say
    We're either shouting or we're shagging?
    Locked in tempestuous phase
    At least that's how we felt yesterday
    The eyes are getting heavier and whether you're asleep or awake is a mystery
    Would a kiss be too much to ask?
    When you fit me as sunday's frozen pitch
    Fits the thermos flask
    It's a pity, it just hit me, we can't go back
    To the chest touching on the back

    oh, to be the person who this is about. yes, this song is very sad, but how wonderful to live a life where someone so articulate with such a beautiful voice and ability to romanticise everyday moments felt this way about you at some point and expressed that feeling through such a lovely song. no explanation of the lyrics needed, as the metaphors have perfectly communicated the despair alex feels and the sense of finality and hopelessness toward the relationship. incredible.

    i genuinely feel as though he’s otherworldly, like, he’s not a normal variation of this species. he’s a mutant or something. he’s eerily talented and it pierces my soul, i can’t stop crying sometimes because of his music (mainly his lyrics) and its a feeling so beautifully unfamiliar and rare to feel, it hits you hard and you can’t help but cry because it’s an outburst of unfamiliar emotions that you wish you could feel all the time.

      In about a year or less i managed to play this song including the fingerstyle bit, i can't sing while picking the guitar at the same time like he does though, i think he was amazing for being able to do that.
      Learned some pentatonic scale. And managed to play barre chords. Managed to play Every Single Thing by Homeshake and Fur Elise by beethoven. That's the 2 hardest song i've learned. I find that strumming isn't really my style and i prefer reading tabs. It looks cooler too lmao. After that progress got slowed down and i slowly lose interest because i was busy doing other stuff :(

She's still here, I'm still able to talk to her, but I feel like something is hollow. I hope I can prove her that I can be better for her. We were the right people with the wrong timing. I hope we can both bring ourselves together and try again in the far future.
