    I'm 18 now, just lost my mom. She was 50, still so beautiful and strong. She wasn't feeling well in her last days but it didn't seem urgent. My father was sleeping next to her... Ready to take her to the hospital in the morning, yet he wakes up to her dead body. He started screaming and I ran into the room, to find her cold already. I screamed for her to wake up... She didn't, she was long gone. Mom I love you so much may your soul rest in peace next to your beloved father whom you griefed on. Now I grief the both of you, my grandfather and my mom.

      It's so true. Sometimes I just hate myself so much. I think bad things so much. Then us as kids, we do dumb things sometimes. We take all our problems from school, the internet, or other places out on the people we love most. Like our mothers. They will love us no matter what. If only sometimes I could love myslelf like my mom. I don't see who my mom sees when I look in the mirror. She sees a Noemi that is wonderful. Oh but what things she doesn't know about me...

This might sound absurd but I'm very thankful to this song for it did something people arround me have failed to do, console me. And i can't be more greateful.

      I've been holding back the pain I've had on my shoulders for a while. My mother passed away in 2018. I've had people tell me they are there if I need them. One of them even knows how it feels because they've been through it. I have a hard time expressing my feelings so I eventually found writing poems is a good way for me to express myself.

    Lyrics:
    I can't believe you love me
    after all the things i've done
    I think i've been the devil
    since the day that i've turned one
    like when i stole your money
    just to buy a pack of gum
    i know it wasn't funny
    can't believe i was so dumb
    I blame it on my age
    but even now, i'm not so young
    i'm still stuck in my ways
    i cant believe what i've become
    somehow, you feel the same
    I guess that's motherly love
    motherly love
    wish I could find the piece in me
    to see the good things that you see
    It's not that easy
    but if I saw me through your eyes
    maybe I could find a way
    to forgive all of the lies
    and the stupid things I say
    and if I could realize
    that it's your blood that I bleed
    maybe I could love myself
    like the way that you love me
    if I saw me through your eyes
    your eyes
    through your eyes
    through my mother's eyes
    I can't believe you love me
    after all the things i've did
    like when I said I hated you when we were in Madrid
    like when I didn't answer you cause I was on the road
    but you cooked my favorite dinner for me right when I get home
    I blame it on my stress
    cause I've been feeling so high strung
    I'm looking for excuses
    and I know that isn't one
    somehow, you feel the same
    I guess that's motherly love
    motherly love
    wish I could find the piece in me
    to see the good things that you see
    it's not that easy
    but if I saw me through your eyes
    maybe I could find a way
    to forgive all of the lies
    and the stupid things I say
    and if I could realize
    that it's your blood that I bleed
    maybe I could love myself
    like the way that you love me
    if I saw me through your eyes
    your eyes
    through your eyes
    through my mother's eyes x 4
    but if I saw me through your eyes
    maybe I could find a way
    to forgive all of the lies
    and the stupid things I say
    and if I could realize
    that it's your blood that I bleed
    maybe I could love myself
    like the way that you love me
    if I saw me through your eyes
    your eyes
    through your eyes
    through my mother's eyes

    • @lk6977
      @lk6977 4 года назад +5

      Same thing with my mom. Try sending her this song as a way of opening up a line of communication. Send her a letter, text, or email explaining everything to her. She loves you, but has a hard time accepting she doesn't like your personality. If you send her something to read, she can't interrupt you, and if she doesn't read it or try to connect with you as well, then it's on her, not you. You've already tried connecting with her. You don't have to hate her or cut her out of your life completely, but if she doesn't try then you don't have to keep trying either.

    I remember listening to this for the first time and of course I cried, I cried until I couldn’t breath. When my mother and I were in the car, I don’t exactly remember what we were doing but, I asked her to listen to this song and she did. My mother had been pained all her life and so I and my siblings from a situation we’ve been through but anyways, my mother heard it and as soon I heard the lyrics I cried and cried. I felt like I failed my mother, I wasn’t enough. She stopped the car and held me for a good 10 minutes. It felt like the world stopped. It was nice being held by someone, especially by your mother. I felt like she knew my doubts of not being enough. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to thank for what she’s done in my life. Thank you Alex Benjamin for making this song. It will forever be in my heart, thank you for making me and my moms relationship better and possible.

    ~~~~~~*~~~~~~~
    I can't believe you love me
    after all the things i've done
    I think i've been the devil
    since the day that i've turned one
    like when i stole your money
    just to buy a pack of gum
    i know it wasn't funny
    can't believe i was so dumb
    I blame it on my age
    but even now, i'm not so young
    i'm still stuck in my ways
    i cant believe what i've become
    somehow, you feel the same
    I guess that's motherly love
    motherly love
    wish I could find the piece in me
    to see the good things that you see
    It's not that easy
    but if I saw me through your eyes
    maybe I could find a way
    to forgive all of the lies
    and the stupid things I say
    and if I could realize
    that it's your blood that I bleed
    maybe I could love myself
    like the way that you love me
    if I saw me through your eyes
    your eyes
    through your eyes
    through my mother's eyes
    I can't believe you love me
    after all the things i've did
    like when I said I hated you when we were in Madrid
    like when I didn't answer you cause I was on the road
    but you cooked my favorite dinner for me right when I get home
    I blame it on my stress
    cause I've been feeling so high strung
    I'm looking for excuses
    and I know that isn't one
    somehow, you feel the same
    I guess that's motherly love
    motherly love
    wish I could find the piece in me
    to see the good things that you see
    it's not that easy
    but if I saw me through your eyes
    maybe I could find a way
    to forgive all of the lies
    and the stupid things I say
    and if I could realize
    that it's your blood that I bleed
    maybe I could love myself
    like the way that you love me
    if I saw me through your eyes
    your eyes
    through your eyes
    through my mother's eyes x 4
    but if I saw me through your eyes
    maybe I could find a way
    to forgive all of the lies
    and the stupid things I say
    and if I could realize
    that it's your blood that I bleed
    maybe I could love myself
    like the way that you love me
    if I saw me through your eyes
    your eyes
    through your eyes
    through my mother's eyes

    I just recently heard this song
    and started crying when he sang the lines :-
    "Wish I could find the piece in me to see the good things that you see.....
    .......Maybe I could love myself , the way that you love me...."
    I recently started to get over my addiction of cutting myself because when my mother saw the cuts she started crying and telling me that she loved me, and to never do it again .....
    I always cry at these parts....
    If anyone in the comments section could let me know of a piano or keyboard tutorial for this song .......I would be very grateful.......
    I just can't seem to find it......
    Thank you and have a cheerful day.... :)

    Wow, im late to find this gem! Either way, this is my new favourite song. Ive gone through many difficult periods in my life and the "and if I could realise that it’s your blood that I bleed" line hit me different. I have hurt myself before, it was kind of a last resort many of the times and i would always feel so bad after i was done. I remember washing everything off and patching it up afterwards and wanting to just seal it all up again. It felt like i was ruining my mothers work, the body that she literally had created was now being harmed by no one else but myself, it felt like i betrayed her in a sense because i love her so much. Your music has been a HUGE support for me Alec, and its often been a help when i didnt know how to move forwards, so i want to thank you for that❤

She told me my first day of high school as I was getting ready that I was going to be bullied. I hate myself because of her, and I hate her for the pain she caused me and the neglect.

    I wish I had the chance to say these things to my mother before she passed in February. She drank herself to death, heavily depressed with being separated from me and my siblings. I wish I could have told her how much I truly loved her instead of pushing her out of my life. I pushed her away, and my siblings followed. She must've felt so alone, and I regret every day of my life for not changing that, or for never telling her enough how much I loved her. To the moon and back, Mom.

    this song hits different, I lost my mom from cancer when I was just 4. I remember doing some terrible things, see; she had trouble walking and needed crutches and a wheelchair sometimes. I remember once I made terrible messes and she had to clean it up, I remember how well she took care of me even on Crutches. She was an amazing mom and I wish I could go back in time to not do any of that bad stuff I did. I wish I could go back and say how much I loved her and appreciated what she did for me.
    Writing this is making me cry, so before i start crying even more, I'm going to stop. But for those of you reading this, tell everyone in your family how much you love them, because you'll never know when you won't be able to again.

    ... I just Instantly started crying the minute I put this song on. Lately I’ve been struggling with things like this and having my life on track. It’s a lot of things. My mothers aren’t even my biological ones (I was adopted by two moms so technically I have three.) And the part where he said “That it’s your blood that I bleed, maybe I could love myself in the way that you love me..” I broke out in tears.. I never knew my Birth parents but I believe my blood is of the ones who took me in. It’s hard sometimes just like Alec said “It’s not that easy.” I just have this sense of rejection all the time; So maybe it would be better if we swapped eyes.

My dad was almost never in my life and now I’m scared to see him and my brother has PTSD from him. Glad that you respect your parents and tell them you love them when you have the chance ❤️

      My grandmother never liked saying "bye". She feels like "bye" is seems like it's a forever statement.

      That's exactly what I tell myself, and what I want to do deep down.
      But there's just this serious mental and physical struggle when I try to make myself do it, or even jusy say things like stay safe.
      What makes it even worse is that I've noticed that I only truly struggle with expressing myself in basically anyway with family.
      Outside of that I could most likely easily say "love u, bye" to someone ik. Hell.
      Even to a stranger.
      It sucks, man.

    Hearing a lot of his others songs, I always thought "he must have a good mother" just in the way he talks about women and relationships. Ah, this is genuinely so beautiful, and couldnt have come at a better time. I dont know how to show my mother I'm sorry, but I know I love her a lot and I want her to know it too

    This song always makes me sad, because my mother, father and sister abandoned me, they threw me on the street with no one in the world... I'm an orphan, being alone in the world is one of the worst pains anyone can feel, and no one ever you will understand how painful it is... The silence of loneliness hurts too much I was a very kind and caring boy, as a child I told my mother every day that I loved her, I just wanted a mother's unconditional love :(

    Why he is underrated?
    Just because people nowdays like to hear songs based on love is that is the only reason 🥺🥺
