Alex G - Ben Lyrics






Blood and sweat in my eyes
Another unfair goodbye
We're at war with the world
But I'm here fighting the hurt
And I say

Its always killed me inside
To watch injustice survive
What a painful price
To die while saving a life
And I say

And I'll be calm in the chaos
And peace where the madness resides
And you'll be the home for the broken
They'll know when they look in your eyes

I'm so angry these days
I don't remember my face
It's like I'm numb to the noise
And all I need is a voice
Saying

And I'll be calm in the chaos
And peace where the madness resides
And you'll be the home for the broken
They'll know when they look in your eyes
Yeah, they'll know when they look in your eyes
And they'll know when they look in your eyes

    Alex, I first want to thank you deeply for sharing this with me. This song hit me very hard in numerous ways. Secondly, I want thank you for providing such beautiful videos that inspire and heal. 💙

  85. J.... J....

    This song is so inspiring especially with everything going on in the world right now. It was such an honor to meet you two years ago when you stopped at my dance studio in Eugene, Oregon on your Giving Heals tour. This song is the perfect remedy for any bad day and helps me move on from the negative events in my life and the hard times. Your voice is so amazing. Life is full of chaos but the message in this song helps calm the atmosphere. I hope that maybe you will collaborate with Peter Hollens because I loved the Disney Medley from a few years back. Thank you for inspiring me to stay positive no matter what is happening around me.

  86. G.... G....

You're voice is absolutely stunning and you can really sing the emotion in the songs!! Please keep writing songs forever, because it helps me {and probably a lot of people} to really find myself and helps me to express my feelings.

    This has been a soundtrack of my whole past year. I'm not sure I could even describe the circumstances bc I'd cry the whole way through. But while I understand the theme under which this was written, this song is just.... it's everything. To anyone who's ever lost someone who was just trying to save another's life... it's just.... oh the feels Alex. The intro tones alone well my eyes with tears immediately. THANK YOU for this Alex. ....and for posting it now for so many others today, right now. They need this. We all do.
