⬇️ MY LYRICS & THE ORIGINAL LYRICS ⬇️

✍️ My Let Me Down Slowly (Her Perspective) lyrics:
(It’s too late to earn the trust that you owe me)

At night I think about freedom
Wonder should I run away?
But I’m sensing your distress from the bedroom
Restless, it makes me stay

Don't come around with a frown
Can’t you see it’s fate?
Like who is it you are trying to persuade?
And I’m lost within the smoke of this masquerade
So please, please

Could you understand you don’t even know me?
‘Cause broken promises are all that you’ve shown me
While I never wanted you to be lonely,
It’s too late to earn the trust that you owe me
You let me down, down
Let me down, down
Let me down
Let me down, down
Let me down, down
You let me down
While I never wanted you to be lonely,
It’s too late to earn the trust that you owe me

Photos under glass in a pile
Empty wall now in the corridor
That bouquet’s been drying out for a while
It’s not looking like it did before

Don't come around with a frown
Can’t you see it’s fate?
Like who is it you are trying to persuade?
And I’m lost within the smoke of this masquerade
So please, please

Could you understand you don’t even know me?
‘Cause broken promises are all that you’ve shown me
While I never wanted you to be lonely,
It’s too late to earn the trust that you owe me
You let me down, down
Let me down, down
Let me down
Let me down, down
Let me down, down
You let me down
While I never wanted you to be lonely,
It’s too late to earn the trust that you owe me

It’s not my fault you’re being honest now
It’s not my fault you’re being honest now

Could you understand you don’t even know me?
‘Cause broken promises are all that you’ve shown me
While I never wanted you to be lonely,
It’s too late to earn the trust that you owe me
You let me down, down
Let me down, down
Let me down
Let me down, down
Let me down, down
You let me down
While I never wanted you to be lonely,
It’s too late to earn the trust that you owe me

✍️ Alec Benjamin Let Me Down Slowly lyrics:
This night is cold in the kingdom
I can feel you fade away
From the kitchen to the bathroom sink and
Your steps keep me awake

Don't cut me down, throw me out, leave me here to waste
I once was a man with dignity and grace
Now I'm slippin' through the cracks of your cold embrace
So please, please

Could you find a way to let me down slowly?
A little sympathy, I hope you can show me
If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely
If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly
Let me down, down, let me down, down, let me down
Let me down, down, let me down, down, let me down
If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely
If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly

Cold skin, drag my feet on the tile
As I'm walking down the corridor
And I know we haven't talked in a while
So I'm looking for an open door

Don't cut me down, throw me out, leave me here to waste
I once was a man with dignity and grace
Now I'm slippin' through the cracks of your cold embrace
So please, please

Could you find a way to let me down slowly?
A little sympathy, I hope you can show me
If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely
If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly
Let me down, down, let me down, down, let me down
Let me down, down, let me down, down, let me down
If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely
If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly

And I can't stop myself from fallin' (down) down
And I can't stop myself from fallin' (down) down
And I can't stop myself from fallin' (down) down
And I can't stop myself from fallin' (down) down

Could you find a way to let me down slowly?
A little sympathy, I hope you can show me
If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely
If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly
Let me down, down, let me down, down, let me down
Let me down, down, let me down, down, let me down
If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely
If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly
If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely
If you're leavin', baby, let me down slowly

"It's too late to earn the trust that you owe me" that hits hard. 💔

[Jiminskies]

They should put this on Spotify..Damn!

[Umapreet.]

While i never wanted you to lonely
Every single line
I mean how can a song be this relatable
This is gem I'm gonna treasure forever

Pain. This is more of a plain rewrite with a different message and story than "her perspective". Because I've seen a lot of "ugh women" comment, I wanna say that I'm a woman (who acknowledges that humans have their struggles gender aside) and while the song is sad and the voice is beautiful it almost sours the original due to it being labelled as "her perspective".

"Like who are you trying to persuade" When the song is purely about him asking her that if she has to leave to leave him "slowly" gently, there's no persuasion.
The entire chorus feels like it referring an entirely different event. Talking about him not knowing her, broken promises, and trust that was lost when nothing in the original lyrics "from his perspective" even hint at that.
"It's not my fault you're being honest, now." ??? I can't even begin to understand where this came from.

I love rewrite, especially ones from different perspectives (Friends is an amazing example with the perspective of the guy, that was interesting too), but I can't help but feel a little- hurt? When all of Alec's songs are sweet or melancholic, and this, instead of building off of what could have been her perspective but the same story (Like what Alessia Cara's part added with adding her own pain in letting their relationship go and missing it as well but knowing it had to happen), it feels like an insult kind of?

Again still a good rewrite of the lyrics, just not for "her perspective", but it's own story.

WOOOOW. been an Alec Benjamin fan for years. This is so amazing 👏

[ablackcatcrossesyourpath]

With that microphone your voice had this slight distortion and breathiness that’s just so hypnotizing and unique. It’s hard to place exactly what it is but it’s just so pretty. I love this so much! Thank you for uploading a full version. 😊❤
