[@leha107]

there is something about this song that makes me feel strangely sad and empty

[@imalionimaqueen7234]

It's about a person who has gone through trauma and therefore closed off their emotions and shut everyone out. Despite this they need love to truly heal. Not necessarily romanticly but maybe from friends or family. People who have shut out everyone due to trauma usually shut off their emotions and therefore feel empty. It's a sad song in general.

[@tobythemenace]

I know, this song is so sad. I know why though, at least for me. I understood what it meant immediately, being a song about a girl with depression who "builds up her walls" to protect herself from her feelings, but she can't find a way to be as she's closed off herself emotionally.

Same! Personally, I think the beat on this song is the most upbeat & drum based song from Alec, which should make it more lively. But, somehow, this song hits somewhere so different. Right when I actually listened to the lyrics, this song hit really hard. It kinda makes me feel the same way the song is describing, having a happy and cheerful or even perfect outside, but deep inside, it’s so bitter and helpless and honestly makes me want to cry. This song from him holds a special place, it’s a masterpiece.

[@lilyli3045]

this is a story of depression. she built a castle in her mind so she wouldn't get hurt. the only problem was, nobody could get in to help her, and the castle (her mind) was drowning yet in fire at the same time. the drowning symbolizes natural destruction, such as the wearing down of the walls. the fire is inner turmoil that this depression has caused, destroying almost everything but her depression, the rubble that remains. she will eventually be happy again, but she will never truly forget her fight with depression. she only wants to love and be loved, though her mind will never let her do so. hence the line "and there's no one to love you if you trap yourself inside."

A paper crown
And a heart made of glass
A tattered gown
And a kingdom of ash
She walks alone
She can never look back
The story of a queen whose castle has fallen to the sea
She’ll make it out
But she’s never the same
She’s looking down
At the scars that remain
But you hold your ground
When your kingdoms in flames
Cause it’s the story of a queen
Whose castle has fallen to the sea
Knowing there’s no one who will be
A king that will come and save his queen
When all she needs
When all she wants
When all she finds
When all she is
And ever was
Is compromised
Cause there’s no one to love you
When you build your walls
Too high
And there’s no one to love you
When you build your walls to
High
She’s looking out
From the war that’s inside
She’s screaming out
Cause no one survived
But when you’re all alone
You wait and you hide
Cause it’s the story of a queen
Whose castle has fallen to the sea
Knowing there’s no one who will be
A king that will come and save his queen
When all she needs
When all she wants
When all she finds
When all she is
And ever was
Is compromised
Cause there’s no one to love you
When you build your walls
Too high
And there’s no one to love you
When you build your walls to
High
There’s no one
Who is strong enough
To save your love
There’s no fairytale
There’s no fairytale
When all she needs
When all she wants
When all she finds
When all she is
And ever was
Is compromised
Cause there’s no one to love you
When you build your walls
Too high
And there’s no one to love you
When you trap yourself inside

I was standing by the water fountain when I saw steve doing Annabelle's homework. They had to let me down slowly so that I would settle down and deal with the pain of not winning the paper crown. I looked into my mother's eyes and said if we have each other then we'll be ok. The knife in my back, from the boy who was in the bubble killed me. The boys name was Gabriel.
Pt 2 - more songs (continued) but he got bored of pretending he knew the boy in the bubble, so he built a friend. Oh I envy you, Gabriel. That was the worst day of my life. It was 1994 when all of this happened. I had to ride my old bicycle home as I was outrunning karma that day, in an attempt to find Jesus in LA. The only thing I remembered was my mother's eyes though, from when she was tying my laces as a child.

Alec- I know you probably will never see this comment, but this is the best song I've ever heard in my entire life. I love your music so so much, and I relate to almost all of your songs so much. Especially this one. I was in a time of struggle in my life and nothing seemed to be going right for me. I was actually thinking about ending my life, but I heard this song and I don't know what, but something inside me clicked and I didn't want to leave this world yet. I continue to look forward to new demos and new songs that you post and I haven't had any suicidal thoughts in about a year and a half. I love you so much (which sounds kinda stalkerish and weird- but it's true) and I love you music so much. Thank you for everything you've done for me, even if you don't know it, and keep on making amazing music even if it's exceptionally underrated.
Your biggest fan- Annika 💚

[@aestheticangel_xx3183]

Kinda reminds me of 9/11
1. Statue Of Liberty
2. Aeroplane in background
3. Falling through the middle of a broken building

[@Boundless2k10]

Because it is about the statue of liberty on 9/11

1:44 Gave me some feeling about 9/11 because of the plane and the NYC sky line. Then a few seconds later you see that ruin of the tower she was standing on. It reminded me of ground zero.

For those who were unaware, he originally wrote this song to be about the Statue of Liberty looking at America after 9/11 (hence the visuals) but the meaning changed over time because of feedback from people on the song

[@kiannajefferys1316]

I have depression and other stuff and I think of myself and lady liberty when I listen to this song.. you bring me true happiness Alec, thanks you.

[@elwhy69]

umm... I'm sorry if I'm being rude, but no, it's probably not true that u have depression
and "thanks you"? really?

[@nikiepete416]

So what if Kianna says they have depression? It may be true, and it may not be, why does it matter? Also is Kianna not allowed to thank the people that make them happy? I actually do have depression and if by some chance someone or something makes me feel happy or makes me actually smile for once I would want to say thank you to that person/thing. Sorry for getting defensive.

Tonight at the concert, Alec said that he will release this song after two weeks from now. I’m so happy about it, this is the first song I listened to 6 years ago, and I was immediately being a big fan of his voice and songwriting lyrics, the way he tells stories.
