The way the girl carries herself and looks and just herself gives the perfect vibes for this song. His videos are beautiful. They're simple and elegant, which is beautiful. Great job Keaton Henson and the crew that helped with this and other videos.
I was the girl being lied to. But, after listening to this song, I think it hurt him just as much as it hurt me. I have to remember that I'm kind and beautiful, and in a way, he did love me. But, it was hard because he couldn't handle being treated good, he liked being alone better because that's what he believed he deserved. He didn't think he deserved me, and maybe he didn't, but he certainly doesn't deserve to hate himself. And he does.
+Sarah Hi :3 I think this is a good interpretation of the song. The boy that is "not in love" represents an emotionally unavailable man with his own hurts and baggage. They are hard to reach.
+Sarah Hi :3 I'm sorry. I think it hurts as much both ways. It's horrible being hurt and it's horrible being the one doing the hurting. "Some people feel like they don't deserve love. They walk away into quiet spaces, trying to close the gaps of the past." Well, I don't want to be like that. Rumi said you have to break your heart until it opens... And Oprah says love doesn't hurt. So maybe what hurts isn't love itself, but what we expect it to be. If we lose our sense of control, ownership, entitlement (fearing what we'll lose) and gain openness and gratitude (being thankful on what we have and approve of changes), then maybe we may love more and hurt less? I don't know, I feel like I'm shooting in the dark here...
+Sarah Hi :3 In my case, i truly and deeply understand what that boy feels. I have passed by the same situation as you, but in my case, on the reverse side of the coin. I was (and i am) the one who leaved her because i didn't (and don't) deserve her. And i only want her, i don't want anyone else. I'm sick in the head for her, and there isn't a cure. She is all that there is. But i just don't deserve her. I couldn't match who she was, so i made her leave, she didn't want it, but i closed up to myself, and she got tired of trying. The worst day of my life so far. So, my advice to everyone is to hold tight to your love, cause you'll never know.
+Sarah Hi :3 I'm in this same exact situation right now and it is truly the hardest thing in the world to deal with. One day he wanted to go on a break and we were still so close and then two days later he broke up with me and then 5 days later he expressed that he did't love me anymore and did not give me closure. I can't take it.
I wish I had the same feelings about this song. But after it was said to me, that guy married someone two weeks after dumping me. He never loved me and dumping me didn't hurt him one bit. And now I have this uncontrollable hate for all things related to love. And this song just tears me apart from the inside out.
How many of u know what its like to hear a song for the first time and the lyrics are so powerful, so moving, they shake you to the core? This song just did that for me.
I'm actually surprised to see a clique member on one of Keaton's songs. You're pretty cool considering you like two of my favorite artists. Keep staying street |-/
"I'm truly alone and I like it" That evolutionary fuck-up in every human brain that pulls us into the abyss! From Freud's 'deathwish' to Milan Kundera's "insuperable longing to fall." There will always be poetry in decay. And I'm not half grateful for it.
The way this girls acts and the way she looks is what makes it powerful, this song isn't about being "normal" its about someone like Keaton who battles with himself everyday, just as i'm sure the girl in this video does. If your looking for a normal video with normal girls accompanied by normal music, you've come to the wrong place.
I came to think, and maybe he's with her because he knows she loves him truly. And the one person who is now gone is the person who HE truly loves but he messed up with her, or they are simply not totgether anymore
I know no one will see this comment, but I feel I have to write this. I heard this song at 16, the day after my best friend’s mother died of cancer, also my mum’s best friend. We were very close, she called herself my adoptive mother and I her daughter, her children are mine and my sister’s age, and we are still so so close. I remember sitting in a campervan once, just us two, everyone else was at the shops I think and it was just me and her. I remember her saying how much she loved the sound of the rain on the tin roof, that she couldn’t think of a prettier sound. You could hear in her voice that she meant every word she said - that was just Deb. The night she died, no one in my house could sleep, it was 3am, and we somehow all ended up in the sitting room, silent. We put on a film on Netflix, the first one we could find, just to fill the silence, called X and Y, I think. I can’t remember anything in the story, but I remembered the music. The next day I searched for the soundtrack, then searched for Keaton Henson on the family computer, headphones in, and clicked on this song at complete random. I have never sobbed so harshly, or felt the raw agony of my grief with such intensity. I have never connected to a song quite like this. I know it’s a song about someone falling out of love, which in no way applied to what I was experiencing, or have ever experienced. But that riff, that opening riff in the first few bars still catches my heart. Four years on and I’m much better, although parts of me will always feel broken, but that is the sacrifice we make to love someone deeply. I would break my heart every day for the rest of my life if it meant I got to love the ones whose hearts I adore. I do think about Deb a lot, and the rain on the tin roof, and I just think how lucky I am that I heard this song, and that I heard her warm laugh and that I heard that rain. This song, that riff, that voice is the only voice and song that takes me back to that exact moment, and I can see her eyes when I hear Keaton. I used to ache and long to be anywhere but where I was, all I wanted when she died was to be back there, back when I was a child, to feel that safety, cocooned in the feeling that nothing bad could ever happen, and all that life was made up of was laughter and beautiful moments, And now I just feel bittersweet, and nostalgic about it all. A part of me will always grieve for her, and my secret heart will always wish for the carefree and safe child I used to be, and feel the way I used to feel about life. Having this song to come back to fills my heart with that feeling, if only for 3 minutes, I am taken back to that feeling. And I’m so grateful for that, I feel only Keaton Henson can touch the dark and light of my soul, bring them together and paint a rainbow built from nostalgia and memories.This song will always be the most heartbreaking song in my world, but also, the song that makes me feel like I did when I was a child, nostalgic about nothing, only looking forward and eager to love every second, craving to live. Deb never lost that ‘craving to live’ quality, even in her darkest days, and I plan on making her proud and being the same way. I hope you, dear reader, do too. There is still light in darkness, always. I promise.
I just broke up with my girlfriend for this reason... The realization that what we had wasn't love, and that I didn't love her is killing me inside out. I'm sorry, Riri, I truly am...
I was inspired by Keaton Henson's songs and he made me write this, I do feel a little love for you, but sadly, it's only caterpillars creeping around my stomach and can never be turned into such lovely butterflies no matter how much love you will feed me. I might just even vomit for too much sweets, because, love, it's not my favourite. It's hard to admit for I know you'd be hurt but I think it would be better if you know it. I'm a liar whom you believe. And everything I did was too far from my reality. And every 'I love you' was just only meant to say to make you happy. Love, I do love your smiles when those words slides through your heart. I do love your eyes when it twinkled to me from the very start. But I don't love you wholly enough to catch you when you fell into my arms and be my whole life. I can't spent my time with you going on the road trips or reading the same book from your favourites. I can't do what you love and the things you want to discover. I can't imagine my life being with you forever. Apologies are not enough from the lies of sweet kisses I put on your lips. Bended knees are not enough to grant those broken promises. But I want you to know that I somehow want to give you happiness but then I happened to give the opposite, I gave you ton of loneliness. And I know, you are wondering why I still stay, love, it's because I don't want to lose you, I don't want you to be far away because you love me. Selfish, I am, but love, it's only because I'm lonely.
I've honestly listened to this song many times over the years and not once did I try to listen to the lyrics to know what it's about but now that I do know, my heart is shattered like hell
I can see in your eyes that you mean it I can feel in your arms that it's true And though I just heard myself say it, Baby, I'm lying to you Baby, I'm lying to you All of these years you've been lonely, And knowing not what you should do And though you are right, I've been looking as well Babe, I'm not looking for you Babe, I'm not looking for you I'm just as damn disappointed as you, Only I just do better to hide it And the one thing that keeps me from falling for you, Is I'm truly alone and I like it I'm truly alone and I like it As we lie in bed, I feel lonely Though we're young, I feel eighty years old And your arms around me are keeping me warm But baby, I'm still feeling cold Baby, I'm still feeling cold And, girl, you must know you are lovely You're kind and you're beautiful, too And I feel in some way I do love you But babe, I'm not in love with you But babe, I'm not in love with you It may seem strange that I still stay with you, If it's true you're not really the one And why don't I just keep on looking for her? Cause I found her, but now she is gone Cause I found her, but now she is gone Cause I found her, but now she is gone Cause once I found her, but now she is gone
Man can I relate to these lyrics. Once you get over losing a girl you truly love and I mean TRULY love. You find it's best to be alone because that way no one has to know your struggles. At that point you know what true love is and anything less feels empty in comparison. So you grow to enjoy being alone. So you never have to feel again. Until true love comes around again and you have to start all over. But that's just life.
Here u go guys, now u can sing along better :) I can see in your eyes that you mean it I can feel in your arms that it's true And though I just heard myself say it, Baby, I'm lying to you Baby, I'm lying to you All of these years you've been lonely, And knowing not what you should do And though you are right, I've been looking as well Babe, I'm not looking for you Babe, I'm not looking for you I'm just as damn disappointed as you, Only I just do better to hide it And the one thing that keeps me from falling for you, Is I'm truly alone and I like it I'm truly alone and I like it As we lie in bed, I feel lonely Though we're young, I feel eighty years old And your arms around me are keeping me warm But baby, I'm still feeling cold Baby, I'm still feeling cold And, girl, you must know you are lovely You're kind and you're beautiful, too And I feel in some way I do love you But babe, I'm not in love with you But babe, I'm not in love with you It may seem strange that I still stay with you, If it's true you're not really the one And why don't I just keep on looking for her? Cause I found her, but now she is gone Cause I found her, but now she is gone Cause I found her, but now she is gone Cause once I found her, but now she is gone
Battling with mental illnesses of many kinds, causes me to have an interpretation of this that makes me almost feel like this song is about me, talking to me, and my body. With life comes dysphoria and aching, and this almost makes me understand, and appreciate my sorrow in many forms. These songs I appreciate so much, because they've shaped me, and helped me so unbelievably much.
I love the lyrics, "I am just as damn disappointed as you, only I just do better to hide it. And one thing that keeps me from falling for you is I am truly alone and I like it." It just fills my heart with empathy. I just go back again and again just to hear someone say it like I feel it.
I'm going through a breakup at the moment, and this song speaks to me. My ex boyfriend told me he still loves me but he wants to focus on myself and he doesn't want a relationship. Maybe this how he feels. Maybe, he's not in love with me anymore, but still loves me in the sense that he wants the best for me, but I'm not the best thing for him.
I am in a longterm, healthy, intimate and happy relationship I feel loved and I love as well I don't relate to this song in any way and yet it destroys me in a way I can't explain What the fuck this is art
My god, I broke up with my boyfriend a few months back and tried to find songs to help me with it, but all of them were about being dumped rather than the side of the person who did the dumping. Thank you for this Keaton, I can relate so much to this song, thanks for giving people in this situation a voice.
Feels like the soundtrack of my life because he's truely alone and he likes it and even if I'm beautiful and kind I'm not enough.. This song just hits my soul
Soko brought me here, and this is the best thing that has happened in a long time, his songs are so touching and they show how beautiful his soul is, he's one of those man who make you fall in love with his soul by touching you in levels others just dont understand.
Cette chanson est une pure merveille, sa voix est si douce. Et que dire des paroles... elles sont incroyablement tristes et profondes :'( This song is incredibly beautiful ♡
i feel the girl he found but is now gone is also the girl hes "lying" to. Maybe he felt she was the one but she changed and is no longer "the same person". just a thought but this was probably just influenced from the situation i was in.
How so? I don't think is the same person, as he says i am not looking for you. I belive that in someway men just want to feel they've earned something, and love when they are afraid to loose something. Perhaps this girl is just there not giving him the chance to long for her o appreciate her.
This song is so relatable. I feel pressured to stay in the relationship because she hasn't done anything wrong and she's beautiful and perfect but I just like being alone and detached and idek anymore.
This hits me very deep. It really hitted home as that is how I ended up being in any relationship. The last time I fell in love with my first boyfriend, and ever since I've never experienced falling in love. At one point there was a person, I loved him so much. I had a constant struggle with myself because of not falling in love. I however put through it,and fought for him because I loved him so much. It ended up that he wasnt that strong and in the end broke up because he had started feeling like what I fought through. This person defenitely scarred me deep, and maybe even deeper than my first boyfriend. I put all my effort into loving him, and then he just gave up. Even though I think falling in love is overrated, because that passes, and true love is much more valued, like I feel I felt with the person that ended up leaving me, oh god how terrible it feels not being able to fall in love. If I hate anything more than getting hurt it is hurting. I hate how I feel empty. How I feel fake with anyone I'm ever with anymore.
does it ever get better? trying to get over my first love after 3 years being with him and hes the only male in my life thats ever showed me love and now i have to see him with another girl every day infront of me. how did you manage? its unbareable
Sara x poor you :( does not fit my current situation because I'm in a happy relationship but it's true for my cousin she's married to a man and admitted to me that she isn't in love with him and that she misses her ex :( x
Sara x aww bless you sounds horrible!! Good luck with everything friend crushes are hell let alone bet friend ones!! God bless and good luck my dear xx
I love that keatons videos show the opposite side of who he wrote the song originally about. For example with this one the song is wrote as a message to a lover informing them nicely that this whole relationship was a lie, but the video shows the other side. The girl acts like shes so fine but she's "lying to you". Well that's how I interpret the videos
I never fell in love and I have this childish inner conviction that I'll never be able to truly love someone , how ever , I feel close to this song and I dont want to think that it's the sad melody that captured my heart, the words just mirror a truth that I want to be intimate with.
i've always been afraid of relating to this song. Yesterday morning, on the 3rd day of Christmas, I broke up with the most wonderful, supportive person I've ever met. Now I'll have to live knowing of all the pain I've caused and hoping we're gonna be happy again.
How am I just seeing this. I listen to this music all the time. And this is one of the most beautiful songs. I started bawling. Thank you for writing and singing this song.😌
you never expect to feel the things that come with this song.. things feel like a dream and you're in love but then it ends. if it does happen to you, remember the good times but don't dwell in them. remember things go on, you'll be alive. everything that happens to you makes you stronger. (I'm recovering from heartbreak if you couldn't tell 😂)
this song now reminds me of my boyfriend who I plan to break up with soon and to be honest i dont know how im going to do it because i love the guy and i want to be friends but I'm not in love like i thought i was i just dont want to hurt him he's so sensitive and insecure ugh
I'm the one who sings. Still haven't found any way out after 5 years. I like to think that I was wrong, that that was not *her*, but who knows :) Life is beautiful anyway, in many other ways.
Life truly screws you over when you find the right person just at the wrong time
the fact that this depressing indie song is appreciated by individuals with such a great sense of humor restores my faith in humanity
This mans music is so fucking beautiful and it shakes my every bone and layer of skin.
"I'm truly alone and I like it" Sums up my life
Well thats good
But he is not alone, he is using her 😅
fuck, I wasn't ready for this.
I wasn't either
yeah
im like NOPE next vid
dont worry bro, this fucking song has been breaking my heart for years now, no one is ever ready for it, lol
I honestly think this is one the greatest songs ever written
+derek hackert I like your face.
+derek hackert yes it is, you are right, it is.
My g I agree
Agreed, but one of the least applicable and most disappointing music videos.
I'd give my right lung to tell her that I still deeply love her.
Frankly, you wouldn't say too much with only one lung. You know, less air in lungs, less voice.
+James Collins Why are you everywhere? lol
+Rodolfo Luna you can say that again. I've seen him EVERYWHERE on youtube, with the same damn song everytime.
what's stopping you?
she herself. cuz she doesnt know what she wants...
The way the girl carries herself and looks and just herself gives the perfect vibes for this song. His videos are beautiful. They're simple and elegant, which is beautiful. Great job Keaton Henson and the crew that helped with this and other videos.
I was the girl being lied to. But, after listening to this song, I think it hurt him just as much as it hurt me. I have to remember that I'm kind and beautiful, and in a way, he did love me.

He didn't think he deserved me, and maybe he didn't, but he certainly doesn't deserve to hate himself. And he does.

No matter how much they love you... or perfect they are. Love is love, it can't be forced. This is a terrible and beautiful truth.
I ain't even sad , this is just some beautiful damn music

"I'm truly alone and I like it" That evolutionary fuck-up in every human brain that pulls us into the abyss! From Freud's 'deathwish' to Milan Kundera's "insuperable longing to fall." There will always be poetry in decay. And I'm not half grateful for it.
The way this girls acts and the way she looks is what makes it powerful, this song isn't about being "normal" its about someone like Keaton who battles with himself everyday, just as i'm sure the girl in this video does. If your looking for a normal video with normal girls accompanied by normal music, you've come to the wrong place.
10 years of loving this song ❤
This song shattered me, I think we all have someone in mind listening to this that just "loved" us but didn't "fall in love" with us
Ooh well, now you shattered me. Had a reality shock.
damn.......
Or maybe we loved someone dearly but didn't fall for them.
Or maybe we "found her but now she is gone". Love stays, passion fades
I came to think, and maybe he's with her because he knows she loves him truly. And the one person who is now gone is the person who HE truly loves but he messed up with her, or they are simply not totgether anymore

Keaton Henson, What an incredible artist you are!
MY GOD this HURTS
Quentin Smith thank you, so so much. this helps a lot :,)
This is so true. Thank you.
You know that things are rough in your life when you can really relate to Keaton Henson's songs .... (I've been crafting for the past hour and a half)
Ella Crafting ? You've been productive. lol, the autocorrelation xD

This is the most indie song and indie video that i've ever seen, beautiful.
The video disappeared for a while glad its up again
Thanks for articulating my ex's thoughts and breaking my heart all over again,Keaton.
i always listen to keatons song during road trips because thats when i really listen to their meaning
My heart can't take it
You probably feel this song because someone did this to you, i feel this song so deeply because this sums up my cold way of treating amazing people
I've treated amazing people this way, too. And I'm thankful I see I'm not the only one who feels terrible about it.
I've honestly listened to this song many times over the years and not once did I try to listen to the lyrics to know what it's about but now that I do know, my heart is shattered like hell
i would kill for most of her badges
i love his videos his music is amazing
Rhea D killing someone seems awfully drastic :p
she's so beautiful.
and once again im in love with the simplicity in the video.
I can see in your eyes that you mean it
I can feel in your arms that it's true
And though I just heard myself say it,
Baby, I'm lying to you
Baby, I'm lying to you
All of these years you've been lonely,
And knowing not what you should do
And though you are right, I've been looking as well
Babe, I'm not looking for you
Babe, I'm not looking for you
I'm just as damn disappointed as you,
Only I just do better to hide it
And the one thing that keeps me from falling for you,
Is I'm truly alone and I like it
I'm truly alone and I like it
As we lie in bed, I feel lonely
Though we're young, I feel eighty years old
And your arms around me are keeping me warm
But baby, I'm still feeling cold
Baby, I'm still feeling cold
And, girl, you must know you are lovely
You're kind and you're beautiful, too
And I feel in some way I do love you
But babe, I'm not in love with you
But babe, I'm not in love with you
It may seem strange that I still stay with you,
If it's true you're not really the one
And why don't I just keep on looking for her?
Cause I found her, but now she is gone
Cause I found her, but now she is gone
Cause I found her, but now she is gone
Cause once I found her, but now she is gone
Man can I relate to these lyrics. Once you get over losing a girl you truly love and I mean TRULY love. You find it's best to be alone because that way no one has to know your struggles. At that point you know what true love is and anything less feels empty in comparison. So you grow to enjoy being alone. So you never have to feel again. Until true love comes around again and you have to start all over. But that's just life.
Here u go guys, now u can sing along better :)
I can see in your eyes that you mean it
I can feel in your arms that it's true
And though I just heard myself say it,
Baby, I'm lying to you
Baby, I'm lying to you
All of these years you've been lonely,
And knowing not what you should do
And though you are right, I've been looking as well
Babe, I'm not looking for you
Babe, I'm not looking for you
I'm just as damn disappointed as you,
Only I just do better to hide it
And the one thing that keeps me from falling for you,
Is I'm truly alone and I like it
I'm truly alone and I like it
As we lie in bed, I feel lonely
Though we're young, I feel eighty years old
And your arms around me are keeping me warm
But baby, I'm still feeling cold
Baby, I'm still feeling cold
And, girl, you must know you are lovely
You're kind and you're beautiful, too
And I feel in some way I do love you
But babe, I'm not in love with you
But babe, I'm not in love with you
It may seem strange that I still stay with you,
If it's true you're not really the one
And why don't I just keep on looking for her?
Cause I found her, but now she is gone
Cause I found her, but now she is gone
Cause I found her, but now she is gone
Cause once I found her, but now she is gone
people like you deserve a cake
you are an Angel ❤✌
Thankyouu! 💜
Thank you
Thx Earthy
Finally, this is available in America!
Battling with mental illnesses of many kinds, causes me to have an interpretation of this that makes me almost feel like this song is about me, talking to me, and my body.
With life comes dysphoria and aching, and this almost makes me understand, and appreciate my sorrow in many forms. These songs I appreciate so much, because they've shaped me, and helped me so unbelievably much.
Something about how she moves fascinates me I can't stop watching it... Amazing song too!
I love the lyrics, "I am just as damn disappointed as you, only I just do better to hide it. And one thing that keeps me from falling for you is I am truly alone and I like it." It just fills my heart with empathy. I just go back again and again just to hear someone say it like I feel it.
This is heartbreakingly beautiful.
“I do love you, but I’m not in love with you” ... I felt that
What this mean plz understand me can you????
I'm going through a breakup at the moment, and this song speaks to me. My ex boyfriend told me he still loves me but he wants to focus on myself and he doesn't want a relationship. Maybe this how he feels. Maybe, he's not in love with me anymore, but still loves me in the sense that he wants the best for me, but I'm not the best thing for him.
I am in a longterm, healthy, intimate and happy relationship
I feel loved and I love as well
I don't relate to this song in any way and yet it destroys me in a way I can't explain
What the fuck this is art
i miss my best friend
My god, I broke up with my boyfriend a few months back and tried to find songs to help me with it, but all of them were about being dumped rather than the side of the person who did the dumping. Thank you for this Keaton, I can relate so much to this song, thanks for giving people in this situation a voice.
Oh my god yes
Keaton Henson has the most direct and transparent music videos, feelings are greatly expressed by the actors.
I wish this was part of a full movie. I would watch a movie with this feel.
3 years, and I still loving you sweetheart, i miss you.
Romania Loves Keaton
Feels like the soundtrack of my life because he's truely alone and he likes it and even if I'm beautiful and kind I'm not enough.. This song just hits my soul
Soko brought me here, and this is the best thing that has happened in a long time, his songs are so touching and they show how beautiful his soul is, he's one of those man who make you fall in love with his soul by touching you in levels others just dont understand.
+Renāte Dināra Peļņa I loveee Soko
Ive watched this video Many Many times and I just noticed the Tampon Pin on her Jacket. Dope
And the one thing that keeps me from falling for you, is I'm truly alone, and I like it.
Good to see Keaton shaved for this video :D
PFFFTTT XD
Lmao
I dont need friends to be happy.. i only need 2 things to be happy 1. Camera 2. Landscape with grass, trees and bees :)
Exactly
nice
+alec cooks
You nailed it on the head. My sentiments exactly!!! :-)
I don't need the camera :)
save the buzzy bois
this is from 2013 and i just found this song today. Wow. what was i doing. I love this so much ❤
every time i hear this song my heart splits in two, but i can't help listening
He just breaks my heart! The most honest dying relationship song EVER!
This is beautiful. very beautiful. keaton i love and I admire you.
i've never loved anything on youtube like this.
This is the most strangely beautiful voice I've ever heard
Cette chanson est une pure merveille, sa voix est si douce. Et que dire des paroles... elles sont incroyablement tristes et profondes :'(
This song is incredibly beautiful ♡
i feel the girl he found but is now gone is also the girl hes "lying" to. Maybe he felt she was the one but she changed and is no longer "the same person". just a thought but this was probably just influenced from the situation i was in.
+SuperHarrHarr sadly, i can totally agree with you
I agree. This is the meaning I gave to the song too.
I thought exactly the same thing!
I felt the same way.
How so? I don't think is the same person, as he says i am not looking for you. I belive that in someway men just want to feel they've earned something, and love when they are afraid to loose something. Perhaps this girl is just there not giving him the chance to long for her o appreciate her.
The most perfect music video ever.
Keaton your a legend mate
This song is so relatable. I feel pressured to stay in the relationship because she hasn't done anything wrong and she's beautiful and perfect but I just like being alone and detached and idek anymore.
I want that jacket rn !!
Of all of his songs, this is the one I relate to the most by far. These lyrics describe the feeling perfectly of not truly falling in love.
i was just smiling when i saw this video, from when i heard his song for the first time to this...i'm just happy :D
This hits me very deep. It really hitted home as that is how I ended up being in any relationship. The last time I fell in love with my first boyfriend, and ever since I've never experienced falling in love.
At one point there was a person, I loved him so much. I had a constant struggle with myself because of not falling in love. I however put through it,and fought for him because I loved him so much. It ended up that he wasnt that strong and in the end broke up because he had started feeling like what I fought through. This person defenitely scarred me deep, and maybe even deeper than my first boyfriend. I put all my effort into loving him, and then he just gave up.
Even though I think falling in love is overrated, because that passes, and true love is much more valued, like I feel I felt with the person that ended up leaving me, oh god how terrible it feels not being able to fall in love.
If I hate anything more than getting hurt it is hurting. I hate how I feel empty. How I feel fake with anyone I'm ever with anymore.
does it ever get better? trying to get over my first love after 3 years being with him and hes the only male in my life thats ever showed me love and now i have to see him with another girl every day infront of me. how did you manage? its unbareable
im sorry i know how that hurts
I'm the girl this is being sung to and realizing that fucking hurts
Sara x this song is getting sang to me
Sara x poor you :( does not fit my current situation because I'm in a happy relationship but it's true for my cousin she's married to a man and admitted to me that she isn't in love with him and that she misses her ex :( x
Abby glad that you're happy! I have feelings for my best friend and he knows it and loves me, but just not in that way.
Sara x aww bless you sounds horrible!! Good luck with everything friend crushes are hell let alone bet friend ones!! God bless and good luck my dear xx
Abby ah you're so nice! Thank you and bless you too! Hope you stay happy and everything works out with your cousin x
The tampon pin is my favourite part of the video.
I can proudly and sadly say as a young man, this is the only song ever to make me actually tear up.
I love that keatons videos show the opposite side of who he wrote the song originally about. For example with this one the song is wrote as a message to a lover informing them nicely that this whole relationship was a lie, but the video shows the other side. The girl acts like shes so fine but she's "lying to you". Well that's how I interpret the videos
Oh god, my heart!
He describes this situation better than anyone.
I never fell in love and I have this childish inner conviction that I'll never be able to truly love someone , how ever , I feel close to this song and I dont want to think that it's the sad melody that captured my heart, the words just mirror a truth that I want to be intimate with.
this song is too real i cant listen to it without wanting to die wth keaton MAN whyd ya do this
this is the same girl from the 'i wanna get better' video and she has her own band called Starcrawler they're pretty good
I love how she has to cross the road at the end.
this song has just torn me to pieces
I'm just sitting here listening to a nice song.
i wish more people commented like you
Damien Rice and Passenger had a love affair and this is the product they produced.
+P Williams probably one of the best comment i've seen in a while.
This.
I would change Passenger for Justin Vernon... but the premisse is true.
YOU ARE SO RIGHT! I've been such a huge fan of Damien and I can hear the similarities.
Damien Rice and Passenger had an inspiration, and it's Keaton :)
i've always been afraid of relating to this song. Yesterday morning, on the 3rd day of Christmas, I broke up with the most wonderful, supportive person I've ever met.
Now I'll have to live knowing of all the pain I've caused and hoping we're gonna be happy again.
How am I just seeing this. I listen to this music all the time. And this is one of the most beautiful songs. I started bawling. Thank you for writing and singing this song.😌
I need her jacket lol
Did anyone else notice that the girl in the video bares a striking resemblance to Keaton in both stature, body type, and face shape?
I will never see this video the same way again, it's practically him if he were a girl
damn, that ankh pin made of flowers, the outfit, the girl, the song, and everything about this is beautiful.
None video clip deserve the song. It is pure suffering, pure feeling, no video can portrait that.
To everyone commenting on Arrow's body, it's exactly as it should be. Literally everything about this video is perfection.
no...she is DEFINITELY underweight quite badly
shes still pretty though
I miss her. As selfish as it is I wanted her to be mine, forever.
+Legit Videos God just kill me
in the end I realized I could never be the one to fill his void despite everything being perfect. it hurts so much.
I can't stop listening to this song. I love it so much.
I hope to never be the person this is sung to, or the one who's singing.... probably will though
you never expect to feel the things that come with this song.. things feel like a dream and you're in love but then it ends. if it does happen to you, remember the good times but don't dwell in them. remember things go on, you'll be alive. everything that happens to you makes you stronger. (I'm recovering from heartbreak if you couldn't tell 😂)
this song now reminds me of my boyfriend
who I plan to break up with soon
and to be honest i dont know how im going to do it
because i love the guy and i want to be friends
but
I'm not in love like i thought i was
i just dont want to hurt him he's so sensitive and insecure ugh
Oshi Webb I'm on the side where I can or will be singing this to someone right now
M Duncan how are you doing now?
I'm the one who sings. Still haven't found any way out after 5 years. I like to think that I was wrong, that that was not *her*, but who knows :) Life is beautiful anyway, in many other ways.
this makes my heart ache badly
Walking through Pacoima, Ca SFV while listening to Keaton Henson brings me back to the west coast. Glad to see they made a video of it.
I've been listening this song for 3 days now. Damn you Keaton!!!
Beautiful song. Beautiful artist. Horrible viewers. The comments are ugly.
Given Arrow's pedigree- I can't wait to see what amazing greatness she creates...
+Justin Seiferth wait a while, I don't see anything better coming
Figs3 I don't see no bad comments wtf you talking about
I found her but now she has gone
Peacock Affect I really appreciate your music and somehow it makes me happy that you like to listen to keatons music too
nah, she stil cute
I love your music, greetings from Colombia, south america
