Lyrics:
You know the distance never made
a difference to me
I swam a lake of fire, I’d have walked
across the floor of any sea,
Ignored the vastness between
all that can be seen
And all that we believe
So I thought you were like an angel to me
Funny how true colours shine in darkness
and in secrecy,
If there were scarlet flags
They washed out in the mind of me
Where a blinding light shone on you every night
And either side of my sleep
Where you were held frozen like an angel to me
It ain’t the being alone
(Sha la la)
It ain’t the empty home, baby
(Sha la la)
You know I’m good on my own
(Sha la la)
Sha la la, baby
You know, it’s more the being unknown
So much of the living, love
Is the being unknown
You called me angel for the first time,
my heart leapt from me
You smile now,
I can see its pieces still stuck in your teeth
And what’s left of it I listen to it tick,
Every tedious beat going unknown
As any angel to me
Do you know, I could break beneath the weight
Of the goodness love I still carry for you
That I’d walk so far just to take
The injury of finally knowing you
And it ain’t the being alone
(Sha la la)
It ain’t the empty home baby
(Sha la la)
You know I’m good on my own
(Sha la la)
Sha la la baby,
You know it’s more the being unknown
And there are some people, love
Who are better unknown

Other artists say "I ignored the red flags"; Hozier says "if there were scarlet flags, they washed out in the mind of me"
I know it's supposed to be deep, filled with heartaches but I just laughed reading this comment 🙏🏽✨❤️
That is actually very accurate lmao
@@ABee42can you tell me what it means
@@zarifrizkie well, hozier is very poetic and elaborate with words.
True colour shine in darkness....but you were surrounded by a blinding light
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO SHA-LA-LA UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES ?!?!
😂😂😂 Best comment ever. I wish I could like it a thousand times.
😭😭
I don't care what anyone says, be it replies or the like counter. This comment wins best comment of 2024, hands down
Literally.
The warped fantasy you create about them, the dreadful longing, the searing joy of feeling loved back, the pain of feeling fundamentally misunderstood/unseen, and the ultimate betrayal that shatters the illusion.
I’ve never heard this experience articulated so beautifully. And I can’t help but appreciate the lovely irony of a song about feeling unknown making you feel so seen and understood.
Once again, this man has me blown away and lying in a puddle of tears.
This comment is almost as good as the song itself. It was summed up perfectly.
You have capitulated some dark but beautiful truths, friend. I feel you
❤️
So well put. The man himself would be proud. He really does capture that roller coaster of feeling post-breakup perfectly. The worst part for me are the periods where what you felt for them fades and you wonder if you ever really felt anything at all, or if even your mind was playing tricks on you.
Incredibly well put Pixiedust🔥
To be seen by the unseen ❤️
"Do you know I could break beneath the weight
Of the goodness, love, I still carry for you"
I love how visceral and vividly the words are when hozier talks about love - and this whole song another testament to how good a writer he is and the vocals are unreal too
And the beautiful guitar music...another masterpiece. Hozier, a gift from the creator of Love.
You could say the vocals are..... Unreal earth
That’s my favorite line, “I’d walk so far just to take, the injury of finally knowing you.”
@@gelflingmama God damn that line hurts so fucking MUCH!
@@shadowscp1391but it feels so great to listen to, everything soars and I’m addicted to it!
This man is truly out for blood with this album.
Hits the core of the soul don’t he 😅
What makes you say that and what do you mean exactly?
@@leif1075or me it means the words reach in and grab you by the soul. The instrumentation gets your attention and then he gets inside your mind.
That is so true, like they all are bops how does he do it?
Give you goosebumps with every word and cord
"The injury of knowing you" will forever be the greatest line
The way Hozier sings about love makes you amazed that such a feeling is free to experience
beautifully said 😭
I think the pain of loss is the price for love, I'm only realising that now. A fair price perhaps, but a costly suffering comes in the end for many of us. I was so lucky to have a love like that, even if it costs me dearly now. Its a very very lucky person who gets to love for free.
Onmymama n nem
@sazbear3913 "What is grief if not love persevering "
@@sazbear3913 you're so right...what an incredible take.
I know this is about a relationship ending, but that line 'so much of the living, love, is the being unknown' really hits me. I've thought before the real thing about loneliness isn't physically being alone, it's the feeling that nobody truly knows the heart of you. That's why you can feel entirely alone surrounded by even friends and family. That private, most vulnerable part of you being walled up is all it takes to feel alone anywhere, anytime. I really can't imagine what it's like to actually let yourself be known by somebody, and then lose that. Must be worse than never being known in the first place.
The phrase "If only they knew" will keep popping up in your head as you feel isolated from everyone else. Personally, for me, it's the possibility of being rejected when they end up knowing who you really are, that when the unknown becomes known you won't be accepted as who you are.
That's why discovering the spiritual dimension to life is important. It gives meaning to everything. Discover your own heart first, then you can properly be in a relationship with someone else.
It's totally right, i agree with you a hundred percent, me in brazil in relacionship right now i had to discover all of it by force, all a question for maturity that i didn't have yet, it growns up in me and in him and we listen this music currently with the traduction, and it's helped we so much yoj couldn't imagine. Hozier are magic, always have been and will be for a long time further. (Forgive my english, i'm brazilian and all that i know is by clips and music haha, but i learned so much cause you'll have so many beautiful songs xoxo)
You literally couldn't of worded that better man
Yeah.
Somehow, Hozier never fails to impress, you can't just simply "listen to hozier" its like you feel it too, love this sooo much!
Nah man I just listen to him cause a girl at work I like to fuck listens to him.
It's DEFINITELY music you feel in your bones your lungs in your veins everywhere
@user-se5qc4eq7r see YOU get it, all hozier fans do too I'm sure 😂
Absolutely!
@@its_Lo_FaSho nope just like fucking that one chick at my job. His music is okay but kinda sappy. Deftones is a lot better. But if 20yo women like him, by default I do too.
"there are some people, love, who are better unknown." i think about this line an uncountable number of times every day
The Nth...
God forbid anyone went through heart break recently and finds This man's music. They'd be done for.
Poor Crowley
This has me crying over heartbreak from over a decade ago that I had thought long processed. Cathartic and healing.
I am currently and this song has me pretty much wanting to sob everytime I listen to it
@@the_ratest_boySame tho.
Or watched the last 15 minutes of Good Omens.... 💔💔💔😭😭😭
hozier’s music never fails to make my heart swell when i hear it. i seldom feel that way with any other artist. how anyone can be this talented is beyond my comprehension.
To make my heart swell is the best way to put it. Every single song 😭❤️
I haven't even heard it, my heart is still swelling.. ahh
Jojo-rl
nox
Jesus said, "What you will hear in your ear, in the other ear proclaim from your rooftops.
The beauty of Hoziers voice and poetry / songwriting❤❤ Just touches my heart and soul.
ready to bawl my eyes out
#methree
so real for that
Same😢
Already 🥺
Bawling 😭
This album’s gonna break me in the most beautiful way and I’m so ready for it
same here. i cant wait.
Seconded 🔥❤️
Same, the album releases on my move-in day for college so I know I'm going to be a wreck
Yes! Just gorgeous.
if he made a podcast breaking down his songs and explaining the meaning....I'd pay for it
He has a few videos on TH-cam explaining some of his songs, I could listen to him talk for a lifetime
I'm disabled, an occasional cane user. Today was a bad pain day but I'm able to sway and dance with this song. It's a sad song but it heals my heart and makes my feet feel light again. Thank you Andrew.
What a beautiful comment. Sending love your way
Me too, my body is a piece of crap, my joints all betray me and break down too fast. Good music like this helps.❤❤❤
That bridge was one of the most transcendant things I've ever heard, this man cannot make anything that is less than incredible
Listing to this after Season 2 of Good Omens is actively painful. It works too well
Im in agony-
Fr my heart hurts 💔
I thought about Good Omens too when I listened to this song.
That Season 2 ending hurt me in ways I didn't know I could be hurt😅gut wrenching
Facts 😭😭😭
Yes! This is on my Good Omens TH-cam playlist. I was sobbing last night listening to this. 💔💔
"Do you know, I could break beneath the weight
Of the goodness love I still carry for you
That I’d walk so far just to take
The injury of finally knowing you."
He is literally SICK for these amazing lyrics and that melody.
Don't imagine Crowley sitting in his Bentley listening to this new album thinking of his angel 😢
I imagine that this is both Crowley and Aziraphale's perspective
great, even in this comment section i cannot escape good omens-
but yes, that absolutely fits.
How dare you 😭😭😭😭
Im bawling already maaann 😭
“it ain’t the being alone, it ain’t the empty home, you know I’m good on my own”
I don’t know how hozier has managed to describe the feeling of pained longing so well in a 4 minute song. god damn it
Oh my god. Thank you!!! Yes!!!!
Lost my husband, of 35 years, to cancer in December…wept at the beauty of this song. Thank you ❤
To have a love last as long as yours is something written in the stars, in the very code of humanity. The beauty of a love like that is something a lot of people hope to portray in their songs. I hope you can take comfort in this music, stranger.
I'm so sorry for your loss💔
Know that you are not alone, even if only through our shared love for this beautiful musician who brought us to the same comments section. Blessed be 💞
This song is literally good omens s2 anthem
"do you know, I could break beneath the weight / of the goodness love, I still carry for you" my God man you can hear Crowley bleeding this
Sobbing on the floor
I was singing along to this song out loud in a park while it was dark. As the part "Do you know I could break beneath the weight" had started playing, the wind started shaking the trees and blowing all around me. Hozier truly is THE forest spirit
I truly think someone thinking of you as an "angel" or calling you an angel because they perceive you that way, is one of the purest and most beautiful forms of love. I can never get over Hozier's lyrics, every time I think he cannot get any more poetic and gentle spoken, he does. These kinds of words can only come from a person who experiences love as maybe the grandest and most beautifully consuming thing, that is the very core of life, so listening to his songs is like experiencing life through his lenses, and that's such an honor
😀 By any chance, is Good Omens in your watch history?
@@greatvalue_ethelcain hahahahah🥲
@@greatvalue_ethelcainno 😅
watch good omens, you will like it haha
Ty, good to know someone appreciates such overdramaticness lol I like Hozier bc he feels as deeply as I do. Listening to him makes me feel seen 😢❤
this song fits Crowley and Aziraphale so much
Guess how I found it.
I CANNOT go on without hearing this live at least ONCE😭❤
I saw him this week and this was incredible live! My fingers are crossed for you getting to experience it too! ❤
@@bethmw28 going friday night. Third time
I hope you get to experience it. Words can't describe it.
I'm going in a couple of moths!
You totally should! Go! It’s amazing
For anyone else who likes to read the lyrics a bit more slowly:
LYRICS:
[Verse 1]
You know the distance never made a difference to me
I swam a lake of fire, I'd have walked across the floor of any sea
Ignored the vastness between all that can be seen
And all that we believe
So I thought you were like an angel to me
[Verse 2]
Funny how true colors shine in darkness and in secrecy
If there were scarlet flags, they washed out in the mind of mе
Where a blindin' light shone on you еvery night
And either side of my sleep
Where you were held frozen like an angel to me
[Chorus]
It ain't the being alone (Sha-la-la)
It ain't the empty home, baby (Sha-la-la)
You know I'm good on my own (Sha-la-la)
Sha-la-la, baby, you know, it's more the being unknown
So much of the livin', love, is the being unknown
[Verse 3]
You called me angel for the first time, my heart leapt from me
You smile now, I can see its pieces still stuck in your teeth
And what's left of it, I listen to it tick
Every tedious beat
Going unknown as any angel to me
[Bridge]
Do you know I could break beneath the weight?
Of the goodness, love, I still carry for you
That I'd walk so far just to take
The injury of finally knowin' you
[Chorus]
It ain't the being alone (Sha-la-la)
It ain't the empty home, baby (Sha-la-la)
You know I'm good on my own (Sha-la-la)
Sha-la-la, baby, you know, it's more the being unknown
And there are some people, love, who are better unknown
Thank you!
Thank you! And for anyone who doesn't like to have to scroll down until they find the good hearts who share the lyrics: it's in the description box already 😸😘
the amount of incredible songs you’ve put out will never fail to amaze me. thank you for another masterpiece.
getting to see this man in concert in september will literally put me in a month long coma because how could i POSSIBLY recover from hearing him sing this song live
Aye I'm going on September too!! Gonna be in pieces when this song comes on
Just a month? Lol! Enjoy the lovely pain.
I'm going in october it's going to slaughter me for a year
I’m seeing him in September too! I just got the day off approved I’m so fucking excited
I saw him in may and he didn’t play this one but he played Francesca on release day and my soul left my body. I couldn’t function for weeks after
Really hurting myself by listening to this after good omens
same
This is literally crowley
fr tho i'm crying and i have to go to band practice in 10 minutes
I can't even rant to anyone cuz they dont watch I'm slowly going crazy
you're the first GO comment I've seen in this entire album so far but also yes?? the PAIN?? TT-TT
Opened the comments to see fellow hurt Good Omens fans
Present
Here! 💔💔💔😭😭😭
Here 😭
This is Crowley's song to his Angel. 💔💔💔
🙋♀️😭
These releases have been intentional. Every song has been so provoking, thoughtful, and moving. But this hit in a different way and the whole team needs their flowers. This is beautiful.
Hozier is like a bridge between the earth and the divine… his voice always brings out so many feelings I can never express in words
I've been going through some hard times recently, and Hozier's masterpieces are like breathes of fresh air. He never fails to amaze me, with his terrific lyrics and perfect melodies, he makes me cry almost every time. I'm so happy that he returned when I needed him the most.
Hope you feel better, it’s always good when Hozier releases a new song
hope you're doing better now man
he always finds a way to comfort even when he devastates. youve done it again andrew 💜
That’s so true ❤
the last few seconds of the video with the ice melting,, 💔♥
@@hannah2729as something begins to grow/sprout? again. 🥺
Hits different after Good Omens s2 :(((((((((((
Had the most spiritual experience listening tho this for the first time stoned sitting under the stairs at 1am. The amount of loved I felt in my body was overwhelming it made me cry and laugh. it was the most peace I’ve ever felt in life.
This man’s songs just describe AziCrow so perfectly 😭
They need to use this in Season 3 of Good Omens 😭♥️
hozier has a way of rephrasing and reframing thoughts and feelings i couldn't put my finger on and makes them so clear but also so new and scary and amazing and i just cannot be more in awe of this as much as of this album's other songs released until now
Yes 🙌🏻
When I listen to this song I understand how christian people feel when they say they feel the holy spirit
I just came out of relationship and I don’t think I’ll find any other song that encapsulates what I’m feeling right every lyric hits just right it hurts but I’m not alone in my feelings
MY GOD, THIS IS ME RIGHT NOW
In the hands of a poet, 'red flags' turn into scarlet ones :) Yet another gem, this one.
I’ve waited so long for this to release officially and it was so worth it this song is beautiful and I’m crying
I've been waiting for this song to be released for months, and oh boy, does Hozier always deliver masterpieces
There is something just so intimate about this song, not even about romantic love but how someone can feel so strongly about another individual no matter where they are they'll do anything to be with them
Listening to Hozier's new songs for the first time is like opening a present box. Breathtaking
Everytime I listen to Hozier, I am just glad to be alive. Literally, being so lucky to be here in this time and Moment and to be able to go through so many great emotions just by listening to this music.
Good morning from Bavaria :)
The good omens 2 animatics that will be made to this song are going to be war crime level tragic.
"ignored the vastness between all that can be seen, and all that we believe" insane. this man is INSANE.
Recently went through the worst heartbreak I've had yet. This resonates so much with how I felt for him and how I'm now healing and finding the peace to move on, on my own. It seems optimistic and happier, but I'm able to reflect on it too. This song is so moving in such a beautiful and understanding way. I will forever love this man's music 🩷 he's a genius
This song just broke me down into tears in a way I've never experienced, and then held me closer than ive ever been held
Woke up a couple of minutes ago and I am listening to this song as I am writing this. What a good beginning of the day. I feel like even if the lyrics weren’t profound and he was just humming random sounds, the melody would still carry the message perfectly. That’s when you know a song is good.
Love this take but still have to disagree out of respect for his phenomenal lyrics
Haha, the same here
Going through a difficult time with my partner of over 6 years recently. This song resonates so well with how I’m feeling now.
Hozier's lyrics always hit me right in the gut, and always seem relevant to what I'm going through. Words that I would've never been able to say, put into song. Nothing else resonates with me so deeply. Thank you for your talent and your passion Andrew, it's truly a gift to the world
days of trying to listen to this through his concert videos OVER!!! this is so good i’ve waited forever, thank you hozier for simply doing what you do💘💞💖
I have no words to describe all the emotions that I experience from this. His music is always a masterpiece.
I think this one will probably end up being my favorite off the album, I don’t know how he could beat it:)
Listening to Hozier is like a daydream, like suddenly you’re no longer wherever you were, you’re in a field, staring up at the stars on a warm summer night. It’s legitimately so soothing.
Hozier is a one in a generation talent, He's got a golden voice
"It ain’t the being alone
It ain’t the empty home, baby
You know I’m good on my own
You know, it’s more the being unknown
So much of the living, love
Is the being unknown..."
the way you put my thoughts into beautifully crafted words and melody is beyond my understanding, Hozier, Lavya so much
Even love didn't know it could love the way Hozier loves.
my ears are always blessed by hozier's voice and melodies ♡
This song touches every part of my being and somehow makes me feel everything. Love, loss, longing, sadness, hope, tenderness. It’s all there.
I agree and feel it in every song he sings. He touches you're being. And his voice is beyond beautiful and clear. So grateful for such an artist and talent.
The fire of Longing and the fiery Ice of stunted Longing. The words. The music. The images. The Pain. Deeply touched. Crying. Thank you.
everything reminds me of that gay demon and gay angel
😭😭😭
So horizer gay idk somebody tell me
Aziraphale and Crowley are so in love.
I'm here for the Good Omens Vibes 😭❤
It's rare to find an artist that is so consistently brilliant in all that he puts out, and it's a real treat I'm not taking for granted. I have never heard a bad Hozier song. There are those I prefer above others, but that isn't to imply that the others are bad, it's just that I haven't listened to them enough such that they've wormed their way into my soul...yet.
A true Pisces and true artist in every single way 🥺
This song just randomly came on a random Spotify playlist on my way home from work. The other songs were skippable, but this… I can’t even remember which number of repeats I am on right now.
It’s made me ponder deeply, which eventually led to tears being shed. That’s how I know Hozier is a great artist. Made me feel and think far too deep for a Friday afternoon. Usually it’s a happy time to go into the weekend. Nevertheless, I am grateful my ears have been blessed with this track.
I can`t believe every time I listen to it, it`s getting better and better. The amount of emotion and hurt in this song is unbelievable!
This song is personal to me and the bridge part gives me goosebumps.
well done Hozier! It seems like you never let us down which is a surprise in the cruel and evil world.
Hozier is extremely talented. No artist can make me feel the way he does. He has inspired my creativity that i thought i lost. My spark for art is back and now im designing a tarot deck inspired by his songs.
You got yourself a buyer already
This level of artistry is impossible without pain
I think this is it for me. This will forever be my favorite Hozier song.
I feel as if this could also be resonated with anyone who has been in a relationship with someone for years only to realize that they were never even that close to begin with and they don’t even know the person like they thought they did and yet still carry feelings for them. Like they were aware of the emotional distance within the relationship and yet not caring about it because all they wanted was to be with them even if they only had a piece of them. Maybe I’m the only one who resonated in this way?
“Do you know I could break beneath the weight of the goodness love I still carry for you?”
Oh my goodness how wonderfully shared 💛
how am i supposed to sha la la in these conditions?
I got chills at the beginning of the song. Me, not knowing anything about how music is done, I just feel and KNOW that this is pure gold. And that it is poetry and love, and something else that I cannot verbalize. I am grateful for being alive and having the chance to listen to this.❤
If this album is supposed to be loosely based off of Dante's "Inferno", I bet this song's in reference to the 9th circle- the deepest circle of hell, where the worst sinners are frozen forever in a lake of tears. Both the song and the video match that sort of cold desolation of the original
It is!
Do you know I could break beneath the weight of the goodness love I still carry for ....this makes me cry everytime
This is so Crowley coded.
This man is incredible. Listening to a song like this, which is so heart breaking, but it makes your soul sigh. It's like when you're going through it, and life is just weighing you down. You put on your favorite song by him, the weight is lifted , and you can breathe again.
This is exactly how I feel! My kids and my husband always know that if I'm stressing to put on Hozier and it helps take the tension away! His voice somehow just centers me!
I just had the privilege of watching Hozier perform last night & it was so beautiful watching him play this song, I started tearing up. He's so Majestic🥲
“That I’d walk so far just to take…the injury of finally knowing you”. This melody, the lyrics have found a place to live on me…permanently! This verse is beautifully written. Every single track on this album has left it’s mark. All of this music changes me on a chemical level. Thank you for that Hozier. The truth is, ALL of your music, for the last 10 years, has gifted me this.
Again, Thank You Hozier.
See you in San Fran in October!!
You've put this so well. He is truly gifted in every sense. How he knits such powerfully beautiful, heart wrenching words together. I've got a constant knot in my throat listening to him.
Going to be at Hozier's concert in September and god I'm so excited to hear this live, already hits so hard and I can only imagine the power a song like this carries being performed in front of you.
I thank the ground, the skies, the seas and the eternal fire heartbeat of the planet for Hozier.
This song already means so much to me. Thank you, Hozier, for sharing your heart and poetry yet again
Of course hozier made his ninth circle a love song. Thank you for flipping the script on such an old tale and giving us this masterpiece in perspective ❤
This was the first song I learned when I got an electric guitar, still my favorite to play. It’s not too difficult and very relaxing.
Why im imagining all of his songs on good Omens' ??? This is so painful
It is.
I'm on campus in tears with this song. These words ripped open wounds that I've never known to have, honestly Hozier I needed this album
I’m so grateful I get to experience this beauty. Thank you to Hoizer and all other artists that bring us wonderful reminders we’re not having this human experience alone❤️
Honestly just rip my heart out at this point
this song helped me get through my first ever break up way back in September, I used to listen to it every night without failure to help me sleep without a clouded mind. It is super bitter sweet to see the studio version finally released, but I'll forever love this song for what it helped me in. ♥
ain't it neat how the snow finally melts at the end of the song? nice detail, I bet whoever decided to end it like that would like it to be noticed : )
Anyone else just hear this for the first and 30th time today? Can’t stop listening to it!
This might be the most beautiful song ever written
This song BREAKS ME INTO A MILLION PIECES I LOVE IT
