Alex Bent & the Emptiness - Hold On To Me Forever

(A. Bent, O. Friesen)
Additional vocals by Oliver Friesen
Recorded at Matt's House from June 2015 - January 2016 in Saskatoon SK

This song took me by surprise. I wrote it as a way of coping with loneliness, but since then it's taken on an entirely new meaning. It is my favorite song on the album. The album was written at a time where I chose to be reclusive out of fear of being hurt or humiliated. I found comfort in creating songs that took the stories I saw in my head and painted them into reality. I hope others may listen and find a similar escape within these songs
