Broken Bells - Leave It Alone (Official Lyric Video)

[@charmaynekeng6863]

The aura of this song is so magical. So unreal and pure.

[@JcGross93]

"I gave into this lonely life and you can't change me now, so leave it alone" This line hits me hard.

i REJOYCE !

[@CyanideShock]

"Leave it alone" is a personal favourite and could quite possibly be Broken Bells masterpiece, an incredibly soulful and touching song which is relatable to all, the instrumental accompanying the beautiful lyrics enrich the symbolic nature of what the song is trying to say, and that is even after heart ache and misery brought on by ones perception of their partner leads them on the path of being alone, which is that of individuality and one should embrace the choices that they have made. The listener can put themselves in the shoes of the singer as we have all felt the tough, arduous times of leaving the ones we love. The singing by James Mercer is on another level of brilliance, the passion and meaning behind what he is trying to represent can be felt in ways in which i did not believe he had in him. Overall, this song is fantastic, everybody needs to listen to this and without a shadow of doubt they will be in love with Broken Bells after it. If you dont agree, i guess you should just "Leave it alone"

[@audelaupie4850]

I completely agree, you just said all I wanted to say

[@joekeller8427]

+Jenni Buehler I lost my son to suicide due to his Oxy addiction...so yeah, it sure hits home on that level. Guitar Hero with my youngest brought me this gem of a song. It captured me from the moment I heard it.

[@barbz6423]

Joe Keller I am so sorry for your loss.

[@jeremybiedermann]

Thanks chatgpt

[@ellacody13]

I found this looking for another song and now I like this one better than the one I was actually looking for.

[@TheChris342]

This is a reason why I like to find songs on my own. The gems you find on your little journey are the ones you keep in mind.

[@cason211]

This started popping up in the mix for The Shins Simple song. It’s beautiful but I still love Simple Song more currently. What was the song you were looking for?

[@jameskennedy5799]

Daniela Greenwood that happens alot when im stoned

[@amelieharvey2111]

Lol

[@Yatzibeth_ML]

I was looking for the one on Tik Tok

[@ikepren3696]

We need a 4th broken bells album.

[@morethanben]

I love this song. Broken Bells is just a fresh breath of air. It's completely different, but yet amazing.

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

They sound like Thrice somewhat. He has that voice, can really sing! The words ring in my head. Just found them today!

[@jaco_bin]

Just outstanding, listening to this in the middle of the night w/ a good pair of headphones = perfection.

[@iflexx39]

This is what music sounds like when the heart is tied to the lyrics

[@Freedomsloth74]

This song is an amazing example of modern blues and soul. I love it

[@kassiestevens6139]

I've loved the broken bells forever, but this song really takes the cake for me.

[@strangewayfaringstranger]

Very relatable.

[@imageoflife3728]

if life wasn't tough it wouldn't be worth living, no matter how many times you fucked up, hating yourself for it won't ever make things right. believe me I fuckin know. take a look at the world and all its beauty, relax, and carry on...

[@Naeem_El]

IOL What you said was the truth.

[@james-uj7ou]

Best wishes!

[@DivineQueenAlos]

"You were sheltered loved and fed But you just couldn't leave it alone" Sounds like me yelling at my cat for eating plastic.

[@lovecatspiracy]

Best!!!!

[@nyakiiyo6692]

Now that is damn funny.

[@itcouldhappentoyou]

Zatyr Ashen thank you for bringing some humor into the sadness 🙏💖

[@patriciabates4945]

thanks for the laugh

[@strangewayfaringstranger]

Haha best comment.

[@alexiscrualnvseorm4775]

Awesome song. So much depth. Miss you already 😓

[@correctedbounds2730]

It's so good... I found the perfect end-song for my playlist. This is the mood.

[@nicholasgoller2001]

I find it completely amazing that I keep accidentally finding the most amazing music just playing around on you tube and I would've never heard it if it wasn't for the damn internet! Lol

[@zachsmith3]

This is how you make lyric videos. Not lyrics that are flying all over the place! Creative and simple! great song too!

[@nyakiiyo6692]

Goosebumps. These guys get it.

[@BrutusMayhem567]

So smooth and chill... love it.

[@joannasoto5144]

I know all the songs of this album❤️ can't get enough of them. I've said it so many times and will again..the most underrated band right now. 👌🙌

[@kamrankolahi-azar5064]

DEEP!! Yet still great musically. Very aestheitcally pleasing to my ears

[@simonmarshall4985]

the visuals in this video are absolutely beautiful, and fit the music so well.

[@Wizard.raven.]

[Verse 1] All this time I'd never let you go And now the same chains that I kept you in They're holding down my soul I set you up, I gave you life, I dragged you out the fire And now you knocked me down, and you shut me out And I can see it in your eyes Somehow you got it in your head That you could make it on your own You were sheltered, loved and fed But you just couldn't leave it alone [Chorus] Leave it alone, leave it alone Leave it alone, leave it alone Leave it alone, leave it alone Leave it alone, leave it alone [Verse 2] Well your heart was here Resting on my lap And I'd do it all again But I'm never coming back Well I know I'm lying Lying in the cold Yeah there's snow on the ground, and if I know myself I'll be leaving down the road I've been all around the world But I got nowhere to go I gave into this lonely life And you can't change me now, so leave it alone [Chorus] Leave it alone, leave it alone Leave it alone, leave it alone Leave it alone, leave it alone Leave it alone, leave it alone [Verse 3] The ghosts are on the green Each and every night Oh, the distant light That's the hardest part to take That's the heart of all my pain Lying in the cold Oh, the distant light In a hue we can't describe, still we know [Verse 4] Could it all be over now We've seen it all the while There's no dimension to the clouds The moon and world around That's the heart of all my pain 'Cause I don't want to go Oh, the distant light In a hue we can’t describe, still we know

[@KonanSuper]

Heard this on Elementary yesterday night......so beautiful

[@Jusala12]

Oh my god, Broken Bells can do no wrong.

[@carolis81]

Omg so the first time i cried to this song was because i had broken up with my ex and the lyrics "fit" back then, now i listen again and i can only think that this song could be EASILY been written by someone who just lost their pet! And now i'm crying even harder than when i cried over my ex because it's much more painful to lose a pet 😢

[@MrSpaceplatypus]

This song is exactly what the world needs!

[@Chalcowy]

Elementary brings me here. You're brilliant, Sherlock.

[@vaibhavmullick4011]

Masterpiece

[@maleafrabotta4481]

God, just LOVE this song! SO much passion! 💜👍🏻

[@brettingham1013]

ephemeral and tragic, our lives upon this Earth. The distant light, our hopes and dreams, never within our reach. Broken Bells...their lyrics and music is unparalleled.

[@raouldiblasi5970]

This song moves me to the core!

[@Nuggtendo]

Maybe my favorite Broken Bells Song... so much soul

[@davidadams2395]

Nice track. Looking forward to hearing the rest of the album.

[@HiddenTreasureHunter]

[@grimmdaddycool]

[@fulcrum3329]

[@fulcrum3329]

[@shaeyaansiddiquey3099]

[@bmine]

I can't seem to leave this song alone

[@WiggyDaulby]

Broken bells have been a boost for me since 2013/2014! Total access of pretty music!

[@strangewayfaringstranger]

I think this is my favorite song off this album. I really relate to the lyrics.

[@dianavilchis5384]

Visual art is B E A U T I F U L! And music too, obviously

[@jessicac.j]

Will put this on the top of my list! Wow, what another hit by these guys.

[@burnitupgriffin1798]

2,6 out of the 2,7 Million Views must be mine. God how I love this Band. ❤

[@michaelsmorrison]

The Story The only story is the story that holds The story that ages but never gets old The story that loves but never loves too long The story that loves before the love is gone ... M. S. Morrison

[@amandaianthe]

Beautiful poem

[@jessica9156]

“Leave it alone.” ... the theme song of my life

[@williamsjeff96]

Never regret your mistakes. They are what make you a better version of you.

[@deadwingdomain]

It makes a good mantra, for me at least.

[@doogsiekomstop]

Who here heard this song because they already knew about Broken Bells and their amazing music?

[@AARONANKRUM]

Found them about 10sec ago and had to check a few other songs after Holding On For Life.

[@jokay1445]

I only know because of the shins

[@michaeldeanmcdaniel4427]

[@melaniemiller4311]

[@Argidiel]

Saw them missing here. Lyrics: Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh All this time I've never let you go And ever since chains that had kept you into holding down my soul I set you up, I gave you life I try to act up fine, and Now you knock me down, you shut me out And I can see it in your eyes! So, how you got it in your head, That you can make it on your own! You were sheltered, loved and fed, But you just couldn't leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Your heart was here, resting on my lap And I'd do it all again, But I'm never coming back! Well I know I'm lying, lying in the cold Yet the snow's underground or underneath myself, For me to leave it down the road I've been all around the world, But got nowhere to go I give into this lonely life, and you can't change When I saw, leaving Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Leave it alone Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh The ghosts are on the green Each and every night Oh the distant light Is the hardest part to take That's the heart of all my pain Lying in the cold Oh the distant light In a hue we can't describe, still we know Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh Could it all be over now? We've seen it all the while There's no dimension to the clouds And the moon and world around That's the heart of all my pain 'Cause I don't wanna go Oh the distant light In a hue we can't describe, still we know Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh Source: goo.gl/uwBtKL

[@jessegibbons512]

Ill always remember the night we found this song

[@MrWindellT]

James mercer is the man!

[@jacktardfilms]

[@GurkenglasHalbvoll]

Danielle Nagelski Actually when he's in both bands. WTF is up with you. The only one here who likes both, Broken Bells and The Shins?

[@clipzfromsilver4750]

GurkenglasHalbvoll Nope you're not. Dunno what's wrong with these guys.

[@Berke.2k2]

It's hard to find a group that put out albums that you can listen non stop. I must have listened to October a million times but every time I hear it, it's like I hear it for the first time. Lazy wonderland is starting to be like that as well.
