Verse 1]
In this masquerade, she can't feel the pain
Cover up her heart, with a little paint
While he's pulling out a flask, to hide it all away
There's nothing left to say
He knows that they're drowning
She hopes that there's still something left
Let go now cause he leaving
[Chorus]
But she'd be fine pretending
Things were alright, even while its ending keep it inside
She can feel them bending
All their love is pending so what is she defending?
Even when she says she'll open her eyes
All her words are empty when she denies
But she can feel them bending
All their love is pending so what is she defending?
But she'd be fine prete eh eh eh eh eh eh (she'd be fine)
[Verse 2]
Step into the light, to look him in the eye
Feeling so exposed,she tries to stay composed
But every little fight, and every little lie is impossible to hide

First verse last line " He's " not he leaving
THE ENDING IS SO GOOD THE WAY IT CUTS
it's called fade out, I believe, and normally takes 2-3 seconds longer than this. :p
Honestly, if it had been 2 to 3 seconds longer it would've probably sound even better.
I love songs fading out ~

Anyone else really wish that this song would get released? I mean, I personally, would listen to this on a loop 25/7, it's one of my favorite songs on the planet. So sad that it's not official yet. Let's pray, shall we?
Sadly he doesn't own these songs anymore so he can't realise them on platforms :( his old label took all rights to these songs. Its pretty sad these songs would have done wonderful.
@@queenofmirth8782 Oh god thats tragic!! So do you have an idea what would happen to these songs? like would they be released by another artist or are they never gonna be officially released?
@@Starlight-to6bm probably just never be released by Alec. Can't say anything is for certain, but it's highly unlikely he'll ever be able to release them later on.
@@queenofmirth8782 uhhuh right I get it thanks!
@@queenofmirth8782 actually! he is working on this song right now supposedly! remastering it.
How does he know how to write about exactly whatever situation I’m in beautifully?!?!? honestly bless this boy
Me too, I think we are a lot more alike the people realize...
Because his songs are usually about his past and what he's been through especially with 'let me down slowly' he knew it was going to end so in the song he's pleading with her to break it down to him as gently as possible
Hey there :) I can’t help but notice that you said you could relate to this song? Are you doing better now? :)
Enelah UwU kinda haha, life’s rough homie yk ?

I've always hate it when my parents say: " Go to your room, this is not your business, you won't understand" whenever i try to have an opinion. It's just not fair, I guess life ain't fair
That's sadly how life is
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
If we got each other, and that's all we have
I will be your friend, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you 🎶
(Alec Benjamin- If we have eachother)
Yeah, us kids don’t get to have an opinion...
@@starchara6514 that's the best answer you could give
That’s how it is for me to...
Dam these song really relates to my girlfriend. She took so long to open up to me about her depression. And now she’s ok she’s happier now.
Edit: I know I am late I have listened to these song like the day it came out I just forgot to comment
How? How is it possible? This is soo damn beautiful...
Move to the side, Santa. Alec is delivering the real gifts ❤
Before Christmas last year my family decided to go back to where I was born and on the 3rd day there we got to see my cousins and my niece (my cousins are all round the ages 6-2 and my niece is 1) and when we got there we were all talking about what we wanted for Christmas some other family members came and we all were excited because Christmas was only 5 days away.
My family were talking about me and my depression because it had gotten worse while I was playing with my niece my cousin came up to me and she said
“Why is my mummy and Aunty and your mummy saying you have something wrong with you?”
And I answered with “there talking about my battle”
She asked “what battle? Did you fight someone?”
I simply said no that’s when she asked about the battle and I said Some people go through things in there life were there sad and feel lonely she instantly said that I’m not lonely and I have my family and friends (she’s 5) then I explained to her, I went through a different battle were I pretended I was ok when really I wasn’t I hide my emotions for years and no one noticed until I got battle scars at first she was confused then I showed her my arms she wondered how I got it and I said I went through I long battle I then explained the basic sadness and she said I hope you don’t feel lonely no and I said I feel lonely sometimes but I don’t when I see you and your cousins and brothers faces smiling at me and making me feel happy.
I feel you...
Thanks sad
Awweeee I’m sorry, try to stay out of fights though. Let your scars heal please...
Here because Alec said he is working on a 2022 version of this. SHEEEEEEEEEEESH!
IM SO EXCITED!!
Lyrics:
In this mascaraed
She can't feel the pain
Cover up her heart
With a little paint
While he's pulling out a flask
To hide it all away
There's nothing left to say
He knows that
They're drowning
She hopes that
There's still something left
Let go now
Cause he's leaving
But she'd be fine pretending things were alright
Even while it's ending, keep it inside
She can feel them bending
All their love is pending
So what is she defending?
Even when she says she'll open her eyes
All her words are empty
When she denies
That she can feel them bending
All their love is pending
So what is she defending?
But she'd be fine preteeee (She'd be fine)
Step into the light
To look him in the eye
Feeling so exposed
She tries to stay composed
But every little fight
And every little lie
Is Impossible to hide
He knows that
They're drowning
She hopes that
There's still something left
Let go now
Cause he's leaving
But she'd be fine pretending things were alright
Even while it's ending, keep it inside
She can feel them bending
All their love is pending
So what is she defending?
Even when she says she'll open her eyes
All her words are empty
When she denies
That she can feel them bending
All their love is pending
So what is she defending?
But she'd be fine preteeee (She'd be fine)
I hate to watch her hurt I know it isn't right
But she can find the courage to leave it all behind
I wish I had the words to help her realise
That there is just no way to bring this back to life
He knows that
They're drowning
But she'd be fine pretending things were alright
Even while it's ending, keep it inside
She can feel them bending
All their love is pending
So what is she defending?
Even when she says she'll open her eyes
All her words are empty
When she denies
That she can feel them bending
All their love is pending
So what is she defending?
But she'd be fine preteeee (She'd be fine).
Dude, how do you make music that’s so amazing?! I love every single song you’ve written!!!
Now he is famous, I remember listening this song like a year ago and thinking that he deserves more views and now he has accomplished it❤️
he still isn't famous, but he is more popular than before
@@horrorhatch5130 his song had 400 million views...
Wow, this song hits so close to home. It really captures the feeling of trying to hold on to something that's slipping away, even when you know it's not right. The imagery of the masquerade and painting over the pain really resonates with me. It's like we try to cover up our brokenness with a facade of happiness, but deep down we know that it's not sustainable.
The line "All their love is pending, so what is she defending?" really speaks to the idea of being in a relationship that's on the brink of collapse. It's like we're holding on to something that's no longer there, and we're not sure why. We're defending something that's already lost.
The chorus is so powerful, with the repetition of "she'd be fine pretending." It's like we're convincing ourselves that everything is okay, even when we know it's not. We keep our emotions bottled up, hoping that things will get better, but deep down we know they won't.
The bridge is particularly heartbreaking, with the line "I hate to watch her hurt, I know it isn't right." It's like the narrator is helpless to stop the pain, even though they want to. And the final line, "She'd be fine," is so tragic because we know that she's not fine at all.
Overall, this song is a poignant reminder that sometimes we have to let go of things that are no longer serving us, even when it's painful. It's a reminder to be honest with ourselves and to confront our emotions, rather than trying to cover them up. Thank you, Alec Benjamin, for this beautiful and honest song.

The artist that I know is never going to let me down. Doesn't matter what he puts out it still sounds amazing. Been fan of him for more than two years Now. All of his songs have a personal meaning to me. I wish he'd knew how much his music helped me. Thank you Alec
Hey you,
Yes you.
Do me a favor.
Stop scrolling.
Just stop.
Breathe.
Everything is going to be alright.
Relax.
We can get through this.
No matter how hard things may seem right now
thank you, i really needed something like this
Thank you ;)
thank you... i needed this... like really bad...
tysm i needed that
We all need this right now
the story lines are always so deep but so real
where's the lyric guy
ana thomazini /rt
I just commented it
+1Maddie The Best1 u are an angel thanks
ana thomazini i know right
Im here
I just realized I sang along to the whole song. i haven't heard it in a while
I find it interesting that most of Alec’s old songs were sang in a narrative position, whereas his newer songs are all sang in a first person point of view 🧐
He still does narritive but he had implemented him in more of them at some point
I never noticed this. Wow.
Narrated for you:third person These two windows: first person
It’s kind of interesting
@@jaylawilson1219 Well it's obvious why Narrated For You would be third-person since he's literally narrating the stories of the songs and he's not a character in them but I want to go into why These Two Windows would be first-person. In Mind is a Prison, the first song of These Two Windows it says "I got two windows and those windows, well, I call them my eyes". We can now see that These Two Windows mean My Eyes which could be roughly interpreted as My Point of View. Also known as the first-person point of view. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk! :)
I swear every time you release a song it becomes my favorite song, then you release another and THAT becomes my favorite...
Unrelated to the song but Alec’s clothes are always so 🔥 I wanna raid your closet 😂 Also, this recurring theme of drowning in your songs, oh well, I’m just gonna *swim swim swim* 💙

Who are the 2 people who disliked this? Can't they see that he put his heart in all of his music and one of the most amazing people ever
Luna Cortell they might have tapped it on accident because I automatically tap like and one time I tapped dislike I TAPPED LIKE SOOO FAST AFTER I SEEN THAT
LunaCortell its five now.. Sad. 😢
Get used to people like that.
Umm...maybe they just didn't like the Music?
Alec Benjamin I love it ❤️😊
One of the few times youtube actually recommended me something good
Funny how alec can break my heart and put it back together.
At this point I'm convinced that if I'm having a good day alec won't post. He always posts when I have crappy days lol
I'm here for this I'm early and so alive yes
Lucy Claire Right. This is a song when you are trying to think or sleep.
And read.
Do you know?
I just ruined the replay button :v
But it's okay, because it's only temporary, and will be right back.
And ruined again.
Underrated comment
I love how easy it is for someone to become obsessed with Alec's music. I told my coworker to listen to his songs and she's convinced that he writes about her actual life. Especially with this song and Use Me, she says he literally gets her like no one else does. Alec just seems like a really empathetic person, which helps his storytelling a lot. God what a talented person

This song reminds me of the day when my ex passed away and it felt like his ghost was still with me but i couldn't do nothing about his death...
honestly, i can make a whole playlist dedicated to Alec Benjamin, i mean who can resist this??
the worst thing in the world
is not being able to listen to Alec Benjamin's new song because your headphones are broken:(
You are my favorite singer thanks for getting me through my life.
the crazy rainbow
🙃🙃
if i ever get a wish i would surely ask for alec to release his demos :)
Alec... release it with paper crown.
this is pure gold
I’m done trying to lie to myself and tell everyone I don’t have a favourite singer ... I tried.
Why does this song make me cry every time?! ;-;
He deserves more fans! ~ ♡
I would love for this to be released on spotify you don't have to but it would be amazing
love how deep your songs are, we can relate and its like a story your telling. thank you :)
I had a bad breakup and this song just make me realize that when it's over it is over and that we shouldn't insist too much because if we love the other person we should give them their liberty when they feel like leaving!
You know I do Alec!
I fell in love with your voice and you're a great storyteller so I love this song!!!
Listened to this when i was 13 and the mood was so sad that all of the things I've been through was tragic and hard and i sobbed. Listening to this again at 16 and the mood stayed the same and i sobbed
This is too amazing, damn

My boyfriend jus broke up with me for another girl and this song really speaks to me because I could feel things weren't okay and he was hiding something for a while now

He Know How To Rhyme His Words Sounds Really Good And I Love He Using Words With A Lot Of Syllables Works Really Well With The Way He Delivers Them
I've been listening to Alec for years, but I'm just recently discovering a bunch of his demos and I'm blown away, he really deserves more attention.
Lyrics :
In this masquerade, she can't feel the pain
Cover up her heart, with a little paint
While he's pulling out a flask, to hide it all away
There's nothing left to say
He knows that they're drowning
She hopes that there's still something left
Let go now cause he leaving
But she'd be fine pretending
Things were alright, even while its ending keep it inside
She can feel them bending
All their love is pending so what is she defending?
Even when she says she'll open her eyes
All her words are empty when she denies
But she can feel them bending
All their love is pending so what is she defending?
But she'd be fine prete eh eh eh eh eh eh (she'd be fine)
Step into the light, to look him in the eye
Feeling so exposed,she tries to stay composed
But every little fight, and every little lie is impossible to hide
He knows that there're drowning
She hopes that there's still something left
Let go now cause he's leaving
But she'd be fine pretending things were alright
Even while its ending keep it inside
She can feel them bending
All their love is pending so what is she defending?
Even when she says she'll open her eyes, all her words are empty when she denies
But she can feel them bending
All their love is pending so what is she defending?
But she'd be fine prete eh eh eh eh eh (she'd be fine)
I hate to watch her hurt, I know it isnt right
But she can find the courage to leave it all behind
I wish I had I the words to help her realize
That there is just no way to bring this back to life
He knows that, there're drowning
But she'd be fine pretending things were alright
Even while its ending keep it inside
She can feel them bending
All their love is pending, so what is she defending?
Even when she's says she'll open her eyes
All he words are empty when she denies
But she can feel them bending all their love is pending so what is defending
But she'd be fine prete eh eh eh eh
She'd be fine
