Declan Mckenna - Bethlehem (Lyrics)
So,
You've left it all behind you,
For love is only as you see it,
Though,
So many do confide in you
It seems you are the one who confines most,
But you sin as you wish
Because I'm in Bethlehem,
I've got a seat in heaven,
And though I am heaven sent,
I can do as I want and you don't have the right to choose,
Codes,
You follow codes and break them
For love is only what does suit you most,
Hope,
I hope and pray for love to reign
For love is what I give through my own codes
But you sin as you wish
Because I'm in Bethlehem,
I've got a seat in heaven,
And though I am heaven sent,
I can do as I want
He's gonna be so big someday.
Amanda Stewart YESS!! Soon :D
Amanda Stewart someday
Amanda Stewart YUP
ikr
Amanda Stewart I hope he does because Fuck he's so good
I have the biggest crush on Declan omg
right!!? I thought it was just me lmao
Same✌
heh same lol😳
same haha
Erin J he goes my secondary school
Haven't fell in love with an artist this quickly for a quite a while
same
*fallen.
Pedro Antonio XD chill broski
Bro Bro Bro this legit just happened to me I stumbled across a song of his an hour ago now he's hands down my fav artist.
i really love his voice
You're going to be someone that shifts the landscape of culture in the 21st century and I'm ok with this.
Fuckin bless u Taha thank u so much x
seriously dec, you're an inspiration, your a fucking genius!
Declan Mckenna ✊🏾

that scripture in mark about snake handling was not in original translations,may jesus really touch you like fire.
Such hypocrites. You can't say you're a christian and do only what you please. This message is so true, there are so many people who say they are christian for social or political gain and it hurts the church and so many others. They need to be called out like Declan has done.
Isabella Lynn agree! PREACHG
thank god someone has actually interpreted it right...
what are you TALKING about? i am christian, and i have never met anyone like this!
@@vbm8992 just because you've never met one, doesn't mean there aren't people like that. I'm Christian too! But there are people who call themselves Christian so that they can have a reason to do whatever they want.
It's all a matter of opinion religion.
This guy knows what's up, props to you Declan, I hope you continue to write about your viewpoint on important subjects like this. Your messages on these matters I completely and whole heartedly agree with, paired with the intricate shots, in this video in particular, really put all of the lyrics together, to make something truly meaningful and powerful. Keep sharing what you believe in, it needs to be heard. I know you'll do great things kiddo.
Genevieve George what is he trying to say? I'm confused .
I think he's mostly talking about the hypocrisy of religious organisations like the Catholic Church.
Exactly! Like Brazil is also so incredibly outspoken against FIFA Brazil and I find it really admirable. Being a singer is absolutely meaningless if the artist doesn't sing what they care about!
as someone who goes to a southern “christian” private school, i couldn’t relate to this more. their idea of christianity is homophobia, racism, sexism, being a conservative, and being rich
been a fan for a lil more than a year and have stalked his youtube account endlessly and have all his songs on my spotify playlist.. exCU ME HOW COME I DIDNT KNOW THIS FACKIN EXISTED
ME TOO IT WAS RECOMMENDED TO ME TODAY AND I WAS LIKE ???
SAME! I thought I’ve watched all of his music videos but I’ve never seen this one before
i love him more than i hate myself
Same and tis scary
lmao same
I felt this.
you must not like him a lot then, because you shouldn't hate urself ;;)
Maddie Parks awe how idealistic.. lmao
Wow, very deep topic. I love the juxtaposition of your words and what is appearing in the video. Very chilling, and very relevant.
Sher de Lune when you said juxtaposition, that immediately reminded me of Matty Healy
And what is that deep topic ..?
AllGood Music It’s about hypocrisy in the church. Look up the lyrics Declan did a breakdown of it himself.
Bethlehem Lyrics
So, you've left it all behind you
For a love is only as you see it
Though so many do confide in you
It seems you are the one that confides most
But you sin as you wish
Because I'm in Bethlehem
I've got a seat in heaven
And though I'm heaven sent
I can do as I want and you don't have the right to choose
Codes, you follow codes and break them
For a love is only what does suit you most
Hope, I hope and pray for love to reign
For love is what I give through my own codes
But you sin as you wish
Because I'm in Bethlehem
I've got a seat in heaven
And though I'm heaven sent
I can do as I want and you don't have the right to choose
I'm in Bethlehem
I've got a seat in heaven
And though I'm heaven sent
I can do as I want
I'm in Bethlehem
I've got a seat in heaven
And though I'm heaven sent
I can do as I want
I see the potential in this person. someday his music will be big.
agree XD
Sometime down the road of his career, I'm gonna be that asshole that comments "been here before he was mainstream" in every video.
Gail Dominque Cruz count me in
Same tbh
samee
Lol you were right tho
LOLZ HAHA TRUE
I listened to this in the bath 8 years ago when I decided to come out to my family. They're religious and I interpreted this song as 'I'm doing nothing wrong, you can shun me but my Lord cannot'. Thankyou Declan, it's been a wild ride but I've been the happiest since.
Declan McKenna is a fucking inspiration, his raw politically charged mindset, when combined with his passion and immense musical talent make some of my favourite music ever, and he's only 17 for fucks sake! big up dec!
(hello 5 yr old comment) yes. yes and yes
he's wonderful
This kid is gonna be a star
what do you know? you're just an old ghost 👻
Severus Snape and you're just a dead fictional wizard ;)
Narisha Fathiya Bahar oh snap
This song sounds so much like The Shins to me. I really like it. Looking forward to seeing him supporting Blossoms in Glasgow tonight.
Saw him in paris tonight, was amazing
Lilouskaya That's good. My sister ended up late so I only heard Isombard, can't say I wasn't a little disappointed but it was a good night and Blossoms were amazing.
Declan is such a talented artist, I'm so excited to see where he goes in his career.
Bennett Rodriguez Agree! He is suprr talented and also such s genuine and sweet person. The world needs him ☺️
I can now happily confirm that this song is amazing live :)
SAME
that little head nudge at 3:11 was so cute
this music video makes me understand what the song really is about
i just found him and I have already fall in love with him😂😍he's gonna be a big star one day
This is literally my town lol. Can't wait to leave it in the dust.
same😂
This guitar never gets old
Proving I was here before he blows up the music world (I have no doubt that he will)
Samee
count me in aswell 😅
Ofc he will blow up one day. But until then lets just type out names in the comments and hope someone notices. I will also prove I was here before he blows up.
I join you guys
People have been with him longer.
showing that I'm here before he becomes famous...
me too lmao
Abraham Molles same
Same hereee
same
so?
I remember hearing this a few years ago on virgin media music on demand and I literally couldn't get it out of my head so I decided to learn to play it on guitar by ear, now hes blown up and he most definitely deserves it, such talent from such a young guy, incredibly jealous
I don't normally leave a comment, but Declan is just so good and I couldn't help listening to all his songs.
One of the most Iconic musicians of this decade, (the other one is Yungblud) Declan McKenna You are amazing.
this song is on constant repeat, the lyrics are bloody genius
this song is so good, all of his song is so fucking good wtf
i just dont get it, he's perfect ugh
he's in hamburg, germany this month. supporting blossoms. nice to see him go international.
Soo much meaning here, I love Declan and his style, music, voice, opinions, everything
I knew Declan like 4 or almost 5 years ago with little pieces and I fell for him and for his music so bad, so I started to follow him, I'm so glad that he keeps growing and I know that there's a long way up waiting for him.
I fall in love each time I hear any of his songs and every time I love him even more.
He's gonna be so big, he's unique.
God, I love the man.
Tu é bom mlk, não desiste que tem fã até no Rio de Janeiro
god, he's so unique. i can almost see this kid making history already
1:28 the way he says love
im pretty sure that he is going to be worldwide.He is pure talent
I Love Declan McKenna, I love your music.
Can't believe how good this is! Sitting here waiting for him to get famous.
okay i've just watched the kids don't wanna go home again and yeah..i think i love him
oh so this is what joy feels like
cant wait for you to be big but at the same time i wish i could just keep you and all of your perfection to myself
my tiny son is being important and im like a proud mother
nearly 2 years on and im still listening to this nearly everyday
I usually don't like this style of music but it's actually really calming and nice to listen to
This is one of my favorite music videos of all time. You are so amazing and I really love your lyrics I hope you make it big Declan!!!

When you have to go to the deepest part of RUclips to actually find artist like him!!! Keep up with the good work!!
how come I only just discovered this? man teens these day can do so much :) guess I'm glad I'm a teen too
lots of love from the US!!
You deserve to be known by everyone, but I want you to just stay all the "original first 30,000 subscribers" little secret. Love you from Australia x
Please record a whole album.
He is its coming out around this year he talks about it on 91x

this comment aged well
You go kid! You're gonna be big one day! You're music is so unique, and so is your voice. Can't wait to see you in San Diego
I'm in love with his vibes
he's going to do great as long as he never compromises for the industry. you keep doing you Declan. your voice is unique and don't let anyone try to put you in a box you're too talented for it :)
7 years later he’s still doing good as an indie artist!
Declan is going to be so big someday
Thank god for declan McKenna. Its so cool having someone my age i can relate too no matter what. We may be different sexes and from different countries but today's youth all face the same shit and its good to finally have someone who acknowledges it. Youre a hero in a sense, my friend. Hope you come back to the US soon, i'd love to hear you live.
Te amooo declan mckenna
You will rise up to Arcade Fire just continue your music!
Holy shit, I've heard a song or two of his playing on the radio and I couldn't find it until now, then I found the rest of his songs. These are amazing! Also, how old is this guy? He's doing so much already. Anyway, I'm really glad that I stumbled upon this.
Trinininity I think he was 16 when he got signed and he's now 18.
Trinininity he's 19 now😊
he’s- 22 now 😳
his music is a m a z i n g!!! anyone from the Czech republic?
You'are the best, Declan. I really love all ur songs. 💜
Come to Peru some day, pls :(
The whole world needs to know Declan OMGGGGG
1:28 my favorite part ❤
His voice is unique, classical, timeless.
This kid's got it
almost forgot how good this song is
Comentario para en un futuro demostrar que fui de los primeros en escucharlos porque es de la poca música que en 2016 vale la pena :'v

This was an accidental click.. so flipping glad I did. Not just an amazing , AMAZING, singer here, amazing filming as well. Kudos! So great!
i'm so sad 'cause you're so talented and so underrated. 2 years ago, people said you will become big but you didn't. and it makes me sick, you deserve so so so much.
This makes me feel immense felicity. i just wanna dance till i lose my breath, thanks declan for ur inspiration- love Danny
so good ma boi
There's something about his music and his voice that makes me want some more.
Ele é tão fofinho

Fofinho ❤
This is magic
If you weren't born in December would your parents have called you different like Novlan of Janlan instead of Declan?
Annemarije Wrong Shoe haha:D
Annemarije Wrong Shoe so Julians are born in July? lol
I doubt if I was sober when I wrote this
What the heck?! Haha
Lmao
This song need to be on Spotify
Do I have news for u
Honestly one of the better artists that I've heard in a while. Reminds me of Vampire Weekend for some reason 🤔
How could you compare him to vampire weekend😒😒😒
It's a comparison that I've heard a lot. Not unreasonable.
His music literally gives me chillsssssss
I FUCKING LOVE THIS GUY
I've listened to this way too many times. I am pretty obsessed with this song, and the videos go along so well. It's just SUCH A GOOD SONG FOR DRIVING AROUND GOD. (EXCEPT I'M PISSING OFF THE NEIGHBORS, BECAUSE THEY'VE HEARD IT LIKE 80 TIMES NOW. OH WELL.)
just leaving my mark showing y'all i was here when he isn't famous yet
this is so good im crying and replaying this over and over
I just noticed that you can see Declan in the back of the crowd at 3:11
haha youre right
And i am agree, that you are something much more, than just another indie-singer, i wait for the album and so do all my friends. Greetings from Russia
leaving my mark like all these hipsters.
my god your music touched me right in the heart
Just discovered his music yesterday and I can't get enough of it.
