    Lyrics:
    The way you felt in my arms
    Our chemistry was sacred
    Oh I fell for your charm I was so infatuated
    But you left me in the dark and my heart completely vacant now I don’t know
    Is your heart just preconditioned for brevity
    I don’t mean to accuse you of refusing longevity
    But I cannot excuse you for abusing my empathy
    My empathy
    I can take rejection
    But you gave the impression
    That this was
    The inception
    Or something real
    The way you felt in my arms
    Our chemistry was sacred
    Oh I fell for your charm I was so infatuated
    But you left me in the dark and my heart completely vacant now I don’t know
    How you could look me in the eye and tell me that you love me
    When you knew it was a lie I was headed for Kentucky
    When you called to say goodbye how did I
    Not see it coming
    Now I don’t know
    Maybe I’m the one to blame have a tendency
    For always ignoring my brain when it says to me
    That someone has been manipulating my empathy
    My empathy
    I can take rejection
    But you gave the impression
    That this was
    The inception
    Or something real
    The way you felt in my arms
    Our chemistry was sacred
    Oh I fell for your charm I was so infatuated
    But you left me in the dark and my heart completely vacant now I don’t know
    How you could look me in the eye and tell me that you love me
    When you knew it was a lie I was headed for Kentucky
    When you called to say goodbye how did I
    Not see it coming
    Now I don’t know
    I don’t know
    I don’t know
    I don’t know
    I don’t know
    The way you felt in my arms
    Our chemistry was sacred
    Oh I fell for your charm I was so infatuated
    But you left me in the dark and my heart completely vacant now I don’t know

      @@thephilosophicalforestsprite Your comment didn't seem like it was a preference thing, it seemed like you thought those things were bad. Besides toxicity, I don't get how the other stuff is bad. But a lot of Alec's songs deal with those things, the innuendos of domestic abuse in Must Have Been the Wind, violence in Boy in the Bubble, etc. It doesn't make them any less in my opinion

    • @thephilosophicalforestsprite
      @thephilosophicalforestsprite Рік тому +10

      @@casie6609 I specified that it was a preference thing. By innuendos, I guess I should've been more specific, cuz you're right. there are subtle messages towards violence and abuse in those songs, but I'm referring to the innuendos you find in most modern pop music, which are sexual, not towards the subjects Alec talks about. I'm not saying that music containing sexual innuendos is any less or somehow downgrading whatever you might enjoy, anyone has the right to listen to whatever they want, i just generally prefer music that doesn't contain sexual innuendos. But thank you for correcting me, 'innuendos' might be too broad a term and could easily be misunderstood.

    Lyrics if you prefer comments:
    The way you felt in my arms
    Our chemistry was sacred
    Oh I fell for your charm I was so infatuated
    But you left me in the dark and my heart completely vacant now I don’t know
    Is your heart just preconditioned for brevity
    I don’t mean to accuse you of refusing longevity
    But I cannot excuse you for abusing my empathy
    My empathy
    I can take rejection
    But you gave the impression
    That this was
    The inception
    Or something real
    The way you felt in my arms
    Our chemistry was sacred
    Oh I fell for your charm I was so infatuated
    But you left me in the dark and my heart completely vacant now I don’t know
    How you could look me in the eye and tell me that you love me
    When you knew it was a lie I was headed for Kentucky
    When you called to say goodbye how did I
    Not see it coming
    Now I don’t know
    Maybe I’m the one to blame have a tendency
    For always ignoring my brain when it says to me
    That someone has been manipulating my empathy
    My empathy
    I can take rejection
    But you gave the impression
    That this was
    The inception
    Or something real
    The way you felt in my arms
    Our chemistry was sacred
    Oh I fell for your charm I was so infatuated
    But you left me in the dark and my heart completely vacant now I don’t know
    How you could look me in the eye and tell me that you love me
    When you knew it was a lie I was headed for Kentucky
    When you called to say goodbye how did I
    Not see it coming
    Now I don’t know
    I don’t know
    I don’t know
    I don’t know
    I don’t know
    The way you felt in my arms
    Our chemistry was sacred
    Oh I fell for your charm I was so infatuated
    But you left me in the dark and my heart completely vacant now I don’t know

    I feel like some people's complaints about Alec's music is that it seems to hit TOO on the nail in terms of emotions. But I think that's the point; his songs aren't meant to be typically ambiguous in meaning. They're stories. HIS stories. We're all lucky to listen to him putting his heart out their in the form of beautiful music for us to hear. Amazing song Alec, I'm sure I speak for many when I say I can't wait to hear more!
