    Lyrics:
    baby waited for me on halloween
    she said her mask would scare me i don't think it will.
    i know everyone can tell i'm an empty shell
    but baby likes me better when I hurt myself.
    baby caught me on the morning
    she says she talks in her sleep i don't think she does.
    baby wraps me up in her blankie
    she said if i don't wake up ill live forever in this dream.

    Met Alex at his gig on South Street tonight and asked if he ever plans on releasing any more copies of “C Sides” and he laughed and said probably not because he doesn’t even think he has access to the files anymore cause they’re on some old computer. rip! At least they’re preserved on CZcams

    this is what halloween feels like to me. i don't know how to put it into words but something about this song perfectly captures how halloween is or how i remember it at least. you ever feel nostalgia and its like you feel it in your bones and in every sense you taste it and smell it and feel it in your mind like a good itch. thats how this song reminds me of halloween and fall in general. its unlike any other halloween song not trying to be spooky (i do love spooky songs dont get me wrong) but just exactly how it felt as a kid idk. im not surprised it feels so special though its an alex g song.

    The soft voice and the even weaker one... It perfectly describes how I feel sometimes. It's like that sweet melancholy that comes from utter misery. When life is going so bad your mind automatically starts clinging off of anything small and precious and romanticising it to continue.

  • @shoshawnablackdarquea9249

    This song reminds me of when me and my older brother would go up on the roof through the small window in the bookshelf I slept in when I was 3 and we would bring beanbags and snacks and laugh while I would babble about nonsense. I really miss him

  • @Sher1454
    @Sher1454 Před 9 měsíci +39

    This one does something to me. It stopped me in my tracks the first time I heard it in a random compilation and I played it over and over again the next three days, entranced. It's this weird mix of toxic and tender, cruelty and love, dependence and kindness, hopelessness and possibility, and of course that angelic voice he sings it in and those delicate guitar backings. It's sickly, sadly beautiful, and I can unfortunately relate to it very much. What do you do when the only person you've ever loved in this world is dangerous for you? Destructive for you? When you only love them more when they can say nothing for the shame and they hold you close with tears in their eyes and clean the wounds they inflicted? What do you do when you heal each other as much as you damage each other? It's so short, only two verses, but it's so evocative and nuanced that I feel like these two people and their feelings and their kinda fucked up kinda loving relationship are sketched so fully. I can see it and see them, and I can see me in them. Makes me wanna cry, makes me wanna hear more, makes me wanna write poetry and stories about them

      ive got you my brother.
      tune the whole thing a half step down
      the chords go in this order and they repeat (almost all of them are played like barre chords)
      E B F#m A Amin
      E F#m A#m A B C# A
      and for the little bridge part, stay with me, you gotta play it like so: Regular E chord, then open E string, 6th fret A and D string, 4th fret G string and open bottom two strings. then you move that chord shape down two frets. and then just a regular A barre chord and remove the middle finger for it to become an Amin chord. that's it. I won't bother getting into the whole strumming pattern and when to play the chords and how, you'll just have to figure that out yourself. cheers
