THE ALBUM IS COMING MAY 29TH !!! pre order here : alecbenjamin.lnk.to/TheseTwoWindowsID

I really like how this song has a lot of sentences that actually don’t finish til the next line

I'm convinced.... None of Alec's songs are bad.

“there's really no escape until he dies” This words hit me hard...

This song hit me hard. It's like he's singing about my father. My dad can't outrun his karma. He's such a charmer as a narcissist. I know my dad is a bad person. He has lied and deceived people. Yet it must be lonely running from your karma. No one is going to let him in. And he knows. It's always going to chase him. Yet it's karma for all the hurt he's caused. You feel the sadness and anger in this song. It's a true masterpiece. Thank you Alec for writing this.

Not gonna lie...I shed a tear or two. This kind of music and songwriting is so rare nowadays.

Alec looks so sweet and kind but damn his music is dark

"He runs because he knows he cannot hide" This words hit me so hard..

I'm dying for his voice And he is not just a singer He is a wonderful story taller too

all Alec’s songs are automatically my favorite haha 😊 nice job again man!

Why isn't this all over the radio??? I have no idea.

Love how his songs are full of meaningful lyrics and have a story of their own

Who’s watching in 2024?

Yes, this song is dark. But that’s what makes it perfect.

His voice is so calm I immediately became obsessed, he is helping me right now ☺️

Outrunning Karma That boy He's such a charmer All the bugs and their larva follow Him out to Colorado Ten dozen hearts in a bag Their bodies lying He'll drag Them down to Colorado A modern Desperado And he'll race for miles through the night He runs because he knows he cannot hide He's never gonna make it all the Poor people he's forsaken karma Is always gonna chase him For his lies It's a game of waiting from the Church steeple down to Satan karma There's really no escape Until he dies Outrunning Karma that boy Can't run no farther it's the Last days of sparta follow Him down to meet Apollo And he'll race for battle in the night He'll fight because he knows he cannot hide He's never gonna make it all the poor people His forsaken karma is always gonna chase him for his lies It's just a game of waiting from the Church steeple down to Satan karma There's really no escape Until he dies La-la-la, la la, la-la-la, la la La-la-la, la la, la la La-la-la, la la, la-la-la, la la La-la-la, la la, la la He's never gonna make it all the poor people he's forsaken karma Is always gonna chase him for his lies It's just a game of waiting from the Church steeple down to Satan karma There's really no escape until he dies La-la-la, la la, la-la-la, la la La-la-la, la la, la la La-la-la, la la, la-la-la, la la La-la-la, la la, la la

Alec's music is so underrated, it HURTS.

okay 1. this song is too good. 2. staring at Alec’s face for 3 minutes is 3 minutes well spent let me tell you ladies and gents!

His songs are actually worth listening. They are meaningful with no curse words, they are not only about breakups and teen love, and he is quite the storyteller! He is really underrated😓

Everyone else: **commenting on the video or song** Me: _Assassination Classroom-_

Im leaving this comment for when like a month/year passes and someone likes it I get reminded of this song and of Alec 😊

Listening to his song it’s like reading a fiction story book

On one hand I really wish Alec’s music was all over the radio and everyone knew him...but on the other I wouldn’t be able to enjoy it as much I think. But, the first hand won. More people should know about his music. Hands down. Bless these people.

I generally don't comment on music videos but man this so underrated, hope he gets more recognition

Alec is my favourite singer now and will always be ✨. The reasons are 1)He is a humble and a hard working person. 2)His voice is innocent. 3)His music is great, pleasant to hear and always with different good messages for the audience around the world. 4) Unlike other singers he doesn't chase for fame and money. 5) He's clean with no piercing and tattoos. 6)He is underated, he deserves more love and support..

This is my favorite song of yours! I live in a really small country, and my school only has 500 students, so can you imagine how _excited_ I was when I heard one of my classmates humming this song?! I slammed my hand on the table and totally geeked out, barely managed to squeak, "ALEC BENJAMIN!" She turned to me, eyes wide, and said, "You know him?!" (I know it's really silly, but it totally made my day much brighter. The small things matter).

This photo looks like hes depressed but he is ok with it

"Running away is a race, a race you'll never win."

" And he races miles through the night He runs because he knows he can not hide " I'm in love with this part ❤️

Who else can't resist singing along to his songs? Lol😁

Am I the only one who is obsessed because he mentioned Apollo from greek myths.....

The "ten dozen hearts in the bag their bodys lying he'll drag" suddenly reminds me of Attack on Titan

Alec benjamin is so underrated... Very meaningful songs with beautiful lyrics! 🤩

This is what I call real music😍

Is it just me, or is his face just the most beautiful one u have ever seen in the background picture?

Maybe I'm the only one but I want to see an animation to go along with this. Any sort of visual graphic that can describe these lyrics because they are amazing. I felt this to my core...

Fun fact: This the first song that got many people into listening to Alec Benjamin

song: theres really no escape till he dies depression, anxiety, mental illness, social isolation. etc: yasss bish

The 16 people who disliked this need to open their ears and actually listen to this...

I love how Alec's songs resonates the night sky, with the presence of stars or not.

the "la - la - la" is so calming I love it

I'm just overwhelmed by the mood in Alac's songs! They seem so tramatic, sad and somehow with a certain amount of joy and hope in his voice. I "discovered" Alec about a month ago and was really shocked that he isn't much more famous. His songs are sick!!! I simply fell in love🙈❤ Those lyrics tho😍

You never fail to amaze me Alec

I like how Alec switches his singing style every now and then like the difference between how he was singing let me down slowly and the difference with Swim

my new favourite hobby is listening to his songs and crying while reading the comments

I wish singers with actual talent and unique voice's became popular nowadays, cause every singer today sounds so generic but then there's people like you who sound way different from everyone else and are very talented. I know you get this allot but you should be more popular and your an amazing singer 😉

This is dark as hell but I like it I don't know why

The lyrics are...extremely well written

This was the first song I heard from him and didn’t realize how many other fire songs he made until 2 years after.. I’m sad I didn’t realize sooner.

i miss the "is always gonna chase him for his liiEEEIEIEIEES." ):

A soft voice with dark meanings. Geez,that's a perfect combo.

Brother your songs have changed my mindset u saved a life thanx bro good bless u

Why are your songs so addictive?? 😭😭💕💕I can't get these songs out of my mind for days.. I sing them nonstop in my head.

Your music is making me so happy I'm literally walking in the air ,the instrumental and the vibes in it feels like a happy spring picnic and your vioce is angelic and soft , thank you so much for being such an amazing artist.

I'm in so much love with this song. Seriously, it is pleasing my ears and mind.

No one: Absolutely no one: Me: *Throws shoe at someone and runs away* Alec Benjamin:

"There's really no escape until he dies" that hits different for depressed people really hard.

3 years yet this song is still a legend

I swear all my favorite songs are song by him. Like, ive heard them in bits and pieces, and loved all of them. Turns out, their all sung by one amazing artist :)

These are the kind of songs that really speak to me. I like dark songs and stories and stuff, so I really appreciate Alec's music

Benjamin's every song has a meaningful story. Such a creative mind. Such a unique way to tell your heart out.

the dislikes are just people that were upside down trying to like. We all know this right?

Your songs are so dark in such a beautiful way, it's amazing. Then again, black is my favorite color. Edit: Ok guys, could you stop fighting about the fact that I said black is a colour? It’s been a year, thanks.

Angelic voice, dark lyrics.

This song now has a different meaning to me ever since I watched death note

Hey, it would be cool if Alec Benjamin and Billie Eilish did a collab...but that's just me dreaming.

Alec does it again! Love your stuff

This song, just, gives me a feeling that feels like I’m happily sad at the same time, as I see my killer getting karma, but yet still feel empty as ghost, and just stay down on Earth telling the tale of what happened to me and many others…

This is literally one of the catchiest song i have ever heard lol and it's been stuck inside my head forever lol

How does he come up with these genius melodies? ✨✨✨

Why do people dislike this???? This is amazing ;-; * scrolls up to like button * Oh shoot, I’ve already liked this

Give this legend a standing ovation for always producing great hits.

This song brings back memories. 😢 i love all of alec's old songs

Now im waiting for The Wolf and The Sheep!😍😍😍

I genuinely love your music. Hope you get the recognition you deserve soon bc your music is amazing and the lyrics are always so meaningful

Okay I've always pictured this when I listen to this song: The beginning "charmer" part is Anakin when he's a little boy, when Qui-Gon takes interest in training him and Padme starts becoming his friend. Then, it progresses to him when he starts going to the dark side and ends on him dying as Darth Vader. I wish I could edit well otherwise I'd have this all as a visual that's not just in my head lol. Any other Star Wars people in the comments?

I don't know why this kid is so underrated,man it's every song is a masterpiece

this music is really dark but his voice makes it a great song.

Your vocals are impeccable!! I just can’t believe your voice

Alec has a way with choruses... They always have me vibin' on them

How could one not adore this song?! The voice is soo lovely.

How can someone make such good songs as fast as he does 😟

All of Alec's songs are grea- NO! They're ✨Awesomeness, amazingness✨

His songs hit you where it hurts😭.

Hi Alec!! I'm a Brazillian and i want to say to you: THE BRAZILLIANS LOVE YOU SO MUCH! COME TO BRAZIL PLEASE! ♡♡

I'd heard this song but I never knew who wrote it, and I'd heard I built a friend but also didn't know the artist. Then a friend started singing it and I figured out, hey, I like this guy.

A song that will never get old

Oh my god… I have been searching for this song for 5 years and now it turns up on my feed 😮 😊
