(Sandy) Alex G - House Lyrics






When you're young you're a loaded gun
So don't worry honey you'll go right back where you started from
Benny saved a spot for you
Cause he knows your comin back honey cause you always come back
And you can't talk to him like that
Cause hes gonna hurt you bad honey I bet you my spot in hell
I don't know where it is you go
But I know hes going through your heart and honey straight to the house of God
I know you're still here and you wish you could feel it
I see you on a big screen and you're lookin sick to your stomach

Look at you
You look so confused
And I remember when you complained about bein alone
I could do anything to you
I could do anything to you
I could do anything to you
I could do anything to you

(Sandy) Alex G House Comments
  1. T.... S....

    alex's music is a genre of its own.

  2. G.... ....

    I saw Alex play in 2014 (?) in a small bar near Rochester (?) opening for Gardens & Villa and he randomly put pickles down his pants throughout his set. When someone yelled PICKLE, down went a pickle. A true showman & humble gentleman after the show. One of the most sincere performances I've ever seen. I'm happy to see how far he has come.

  3. N.... R....

    I had written off Alex G as another mac demarco esque white boy bedroom indie rock pop whatever until i heard this. I mean, hes still that but this is excellent lmao

  4. B.... F....

    "sugar" has serious Nier Automata vibes love it

    B.... F....

    It reminds me of oneohtrix point never (who Alex g made a song with)

  5. J.... T....

    Blalock I used to download your playlists on isohunt back in like 2009 while I was in highschool and you changed the way I appreciate music forever since then. I just want to take a moment and appreciate how cool it is that you're the one sharing this album on YouTube by one of my all-time favourite artists. Peace brother.

    J.... T....

    Since the beginning! It makes me happy to hear things like that. 🙂 Thanks for giving them a listen so long ago and sticking around! Take care!!

  6. v.... ....

    Perfect fall album,you can p much taste the crisp autumn air when the first track starts.

  7. M.... H....

    Just discovered your music 4 days ago. This music is top tier mate! Im mindblown. I think this album contains some of the truest music i've ever heard. Amazing 11/10

  8. L.... H....

    33:20 I'am dying

  9. D.... P....

    Near definitely sounds like Pinback

    D.... P....

    I love pinback

    D.... P....

    @stella I too love pinback

  10. D.... P....

    dang. I think southern sky, gretel and hope are my favorites. Glad i found this

  11. H.... B....

    i love this,its owesome

  12. H.... B....

    love this

  13. S.... M....

    Truly sublime. They make quality

  14. D.... ....

    Fishtown Philadelphia homies 💘🙏 🔔🚋

  15. H.... B....

    Alex G's music does this crazy thing where you listen to it once and you're like "okay that was neat" but then it gets under your skin and you have to go back for another listen...and then you're hopelessly addicted.

    H.... B....

    one way or another the latter is true. there's some honest and wholesome quality about it that I can't even put into words. I may have only been a fan since beach music and missed the real experience of early Alex G but I'm still here.

    H.... B....

    Couldn't have said that better

  16. T.... P....

    big nay

  17. M.... ....

    That bass on sugar house is one of the sweetest things I've ever heard

  18. M.... ....

    I swear some of this album is uncharted waters. Pure innovation. Damn this is good

    M.... ....

    Yep, songs like "Taking", "Bad Man" and especially "Near" sound genuinely new and unprecedented

  19. �.... �....

    that wonderful feeling when you can listen to every single song with admiration

  20. C.... H....

    Had no idea the full album was out.. I'm so excited to listen <3

  21. B.... ....

    22.9.19

  22. T.... ....

    Holy shit Southern Sky is amazing as fuck! <3 <3

  23. L.... A....

    Alex does a better southern accent than me and I'm from Tennessee lol

  24. D.... L....

    Are you serious? Fucking ads on an album that isn't yours? wtf.

    D.... L....

    That's not how it works: https://imgur.com/L6zCas6

  25. T.... S....

    why she doing a jojos pose

  26. I.... L....

    I hate the part of me
    that's not Alex G
    That's not who I want to be

    I.... L....

    Ian LeBlanc which song is that from

  27. S.... P....

    history being made. thanks alex for this magnificent album :)

  28. B.... B....

    incredible, def aoty for me

  29. N.... D....

    I'm here because of an ad on Dog Problems.




    The only ad I didn't skip.

  30. B.... B....

    This is so good 🥺🥺🥺🥺 instant fan

  31. G.... ....

    This album would have been much better had it been trimmed down to about 8 or 9 tracks. Not a bad album by any means, but it's front loaded for sure

    G.... ....

    Totally agree. I have Hope, Taking, Gretel, Southern Sky and Crime on repeat all the time. But the rest of the tracks, couldn't really spend much time with them.

    G.... ....

    @Alex Bielovich I sub out Crime with Sugar house live, but yeah the stretch of tracks from Hope to Taking are actually some of his best. I just can't justify either of the instrumentals and the other tracks don't serve the same sound scape?

    G.... ....

    @Ghoulish Truth. Needed more lyrics and more singing like the Sugarhouse live track. Love the album, was hoping for more

  32. s.... s....

    thank you alex <3 it means a lot

  33. f.... ....

    Man what is this country accent on Bad Man wtf

    f.... ....

    How bout that

  34. C.... B....

    Thank whatever higher power is at hand for this release, just in time. Endless praise

    C.... B....

    just our lord and savior sandy

  35. J.... N....

    thank u Alex G love it. another great record

  36. k.... c....

    DSU was this kid's best work

    k.... c....

    kenny carpenter Race and Trick are even for the spot in my opinion. But regardless, I don’t believe Alex really cares that much about what the fans think. He keeps himself removed from most fan discourse including YouTube comments. From beginning to end it seems like he makes and plays what he wants to. It’s worked out rather well for him that way. The vast majority of people in general don’t like anything about Alex G’s musical style and if he went off feedback he’d never have put out anything.

    k.... c....

    Have you listened to Beach Music? Trick has my fav songs but it isn't as consistent as DSU and BM

  37. R.... Y....

    Probably Album of the Year for me.

    R.... Y....

    Melon gave it 6/10

    R.... Y....

    Some songs are really good others are just ehh and it gets kinda redundant at times. I prefer to listen to certain track over the whole album

  38. R.... F....

    big thank

  39. S.... ....

    This album is beautiful

  40. I.... S....

    Muito bom.

  41. J.... B....

    I liked Rocket, but this is brilliant. Serious contender for best album of the year.

  42. N.... V....

    thank you alex!!!!!! love your work!! keep creating !!! fan from Texas ! :-)

  43. G.... L....

    Alex- promise I’ll buy your album when I’m back home in NJ. Stupid phone took away the auxiliary jack so I have to listen from the iPhone mic. I’m in Idaho until Monday. Will purchase when I’m back home.

    - Greg

    G.... L....

    I ran out of money will buy when I can

    G.... L....

    @Greg Liscio This is so sweet

  44. B.... J....

    Alex G, such a talented boy, but it my opinion its not a good album.
    As chaotic as you can get with one trully good song - Gretel.
    But he still has way to go. I expect something even better than 'Race' someday.

    B.... J....

    Everything after DSU has been fairly lackluster imo.

    B.... J....

    i think this is one of the best G albums. to each their own i guess

    B.... J....

    This might be my favorite album of his, and I love all his records. I don’t think you get it.

    B.... J....

    I think objectively this is better than Race.... and I do love that album a ton...

    B.... J....

    @brimer welpippy :O

  45. s.... ....

    well, he's clearly smashed it out the park

  46. g.... ....

    Best birthday gift ever. Have been waiting for months!!!!!!

  47. f.... ....

    When I first heard southern sky I didn't like it that much but I stopped listening to it for a few weeks and I'm listening to it now and WHY AM I CRYING IN THE SHOWER😭

  48. M.... o....

    He fell off sharply after Beach Music.

    M.... o....

    M.... o....

    @ilovecats46 The truth hurts

    M.... o....

    this album is a soundscape unorganized sloppy MASTERPIECE. one of the best G albums in my opinion. to each their own i guess

    M.... o....

    I 100% disagree with you, but you’re entitled to that opinion. This might actually be his best record IMO. Sorry it wasn’t for you.

    M.... o....

    Mind of Mike unfortunately I gotta agree with you on this album but I liked most of Rocket

  49. M.... S....

    Gretel is the greatest song i've heard this year.

    M.... S....

    its pretty hard

  50. M.... A....

    This is awesome, he never dissapoints

  51. m.... ....

    YEEEEEEEEES SO GOOD!!!! <3

  52. c.... ....

    If you're here right now you a real one.  Or ya don't got Spotify.

    c.... ....

    just a real 1. this shit's a masterpiece, as expected from sandy.

  53. s.... r....

    Why the downvotes?

    s.... r....

    Alex is an artist where it takes a few timesto listen to him before you get completely sucked in and enjoy all the variance. Sort of like Fugazi or anything else less commercial. So when there's an opener like walk away some people just hear the non commercial sound and disregard it completely. But that's what makes his music fantastic, he does it for himself and only a select amount of people stick around to enjoy it too.

    s.... r....

    might be bots

    s.... r....

    cheeesonator yeah exactly. Honestly the less commercial songs like this one and project 2 are some of my favorites on the album

    s.... r....

    Because it sounds like pinback

  54. M.... W....

    Pitchfork review prediction 6.5-7.0

    M.... W....

    kenny carpenter near is actually one of my favorites on the album! Haha. So we’re obviously not on the same page.

    M.... W....

    @kenny carpenter Hey there, I loved Bad Man! Get what you're saying though

    M.... W....

    @CJ H I appreciate his willingness to expreiment amd evolve the sound but this record just seems too hodgepodge.

    M.... W....

    Melon Man gave it a 5/10

  55. c.... b....

    been waiting for this album for do long and omg it so fking good wth I love you Alex <33

    c.... b....

    sadistic angel looking at your Lilpeep profile pic made me think. I think the song in this album "Hope" is a tribute to lilpeep's passing due to fentanyl. I've listened to peep for a while.. My favs are, Benz Truck 2, LilKennedy, and Hellboy. I know many people have passed away to fentanyl however, it would make the song even better for me if it Was a tribute to Lilpeep :)

    c.... b....

    @Nyctophiliax I know what you mean, hes greatly missed. ghost girl will forever be my favourite because it has a deep meaning for me and another person. rest in peace brother

    c.... b....

    sadistic angel agree :)

    c.... b....

    Nyctophiliax I don’t think it was specifically about lil peep but fentanyl caused deaths happened a lot where he’s from i read somewhere

    c.... b....

    Daniel Killorin yes I know. However thx for informing me :)

  56. R.... D....

    Saw Sandy open for Dr Dog a little while back in Brooklyn. Ended up spilling my drink by the merch booth and getting reemed out by a Dr Dog roady. The fella working the booth for Alex ended up taking pity on me and getting me a full solo cup of gin from back stage. Proceed to get trashed, talked with the dude for about an hour, until Alex and friends strolled out... Apologetically, i started drunkly geeking out on him and the band, and continued to berate them with phrase for some time. Long story short, ended up missing a majority of the DD show just chatting up.


    Seemingly a good guy and an unarguably great music. Made my day with new tunes. A personal, prolific master at it again.

    [4:17] Hope

    He was a good friend of mine
    He died
    Why I write about it now
    Gotta honor him somehow
    Saw some people crying that night
    Yeah Fentanyl took a few lives from our life
    Alright

    I awoke in the middle of the night
    He spoke
    With his eyes half closed
    Can you get me something else to eat
    Got a hole in my chest
    I can't take it anymore
    Put my pillow to the test
    Let me rest

    In the house they were calling out his name
    All night
    Taking turns on the bed
    Throwing bottles from the windows of the home
    On Hope Street
    You can write a check in my name now
    Eddie take the money and run

    [6:54] Southern Sky

    [Verse 1]
    One, two, three
    I count black sheep on my way to sleep
    I can’t pick and choose these devils in my
    Patterned dreams
    When I wake up I am smiling
    Now I will not change my mind
    I will remember the trouble in my
    Brother’s eye

    [Chorus: Emily Yacina]
    It’s okay we don’t cry we love the southern sky
    It’s okay we don’t cry we love the southern sky
    It’s okay we don’t cry we love the southern sky

    [Verse 2]
    You and me
    These are titles I can hardly speak
    Are we bound here to an echo tinted
    Blue and green
    Let my memory run backwards
    So together we may lie
    I will remember the fire
    In the southern sky

    [Chorus: Emily Yacina]
    It’s okay we don’t cry we love the southern sky
    It’s okay we don’t cry we love the southern sky
    It’s okay we don’t cry we love the southern sky

    [10:07] Gretel

    I don't wanna go back
    Nobody's gonna push me off track, uh huh
    I don't wanna go back
    Nobody's gonna push me off track, uh huh
    It’s calling me back
    House of Sugar
    Did they bury me here?
    Daddy don’t let 'em put me down
    Daddy don’t let 'em turn me around
    I don’t wanna go back
    Nobody’s gonna push me off track, uh huh
    I see what they do
    Good people got something to lose
    I don’t wanna go back
    Nobody’s gonna push me off track, uh huh
    I don’t wanna be this
    Good people gotta fight to exist
    I can see it right there right in front of me

    [13:17] Taking

    [Verse 1]
    Gather up pieces of paper
    I put my eyes to the world
    Watching the buckets of [?]
    [?]
    Coming
    And coming
    And coming
    And coming
    And coming
    And coming
    And coming
    And coming

    [Verse 2]
    That's how she found me this morning
    Bundled my head in her arms
    Lifted my spoonful of sugar
    Taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking
    And taking

    And taking

    [15:31] Near

    [Intro]
    All I want
    You
    You
    You
    You
    You
    You
    You

    [Chorus]
    All I want is to be near you, you, you, you
    (Flower, water, earth, soul
    Flower, water, earth, fire)
    All I want is to be near you, you, you, you
    (Flower, water, earth, soul
    Flower, water, earth, higher)
    All I want is to be near you, you you, you
    (Flower, water, earth, soul
    Flower, water, higher)

    [Verse 1]
    (Four, five, six, seven)
    I saw the light
    (No looking)
    (No touching)
    I'm not alright
    (Black feather)
    (No touching)
    I'll be alright
    (No touching)
    I hope I'm alright
    (No fucking)

    [Chorus]
    All I want is to be near you, you, you, you

    [Outro]
    (Four, five, six, seven)
    I see the wolf
    Let me go
    (No touching)
    Leave me without you
    Cut it off
    (No touching)
    I wonder
    Why you always
    (No touching)
    Looked away
    (No running)

    [17:40] Project 2

    [Instrumental]

    [20:02] Bad Man

    I'm a bad man, how about that? (so bad)
    Going hungry on a pillar of fat (of fat)
    If I had a way, I would take it back (take it back)
    If you let me stay, I would be so glad (so)

    What river runs deeper than this?
    Stamping on cigarettes, opening fists
    What river runs deeper than this?
    Biting off fingernails, breaking our wrists
    Breaking our wrists

    When the bomb dropped, I was 22
    Buried under black dirt, how about you?
    When the bomb dropped, I was 25
    Lying in the grass under tangerine sky
    Tangerine sky

    [21:54] Sugar

    [24:42] In My Arms

    I take it in or I do without
    I never care what we talk about
    Pull up the car outside your house
    Took out the seats so we could lie down

    "You know who was in my arms"
    "You know who was in my arms"

    He laid his head back on my chest
    Once had a wife, now nobody's left
    You said the song makes you wanna do bad things, yeah
    You know good music makes me wanna do bad things

    "You know who was in my arms"

    [27:25] Cow

    [Verse 1]
    I see the red sky
    Beyond our state line
    Over mama's minivan
    Rushing to work on time
    I see the red sky
    You always ask me why
    I find myself on corners
    Every once in awhile

    [Chorus]
    You big old cow
    You draw me out
    Lie on the ground
    Kiss on the mouth

    [Verse 2]
    I dream of deep sea
    That it should swallow me
    And pitch me up on some wave
    Put me down tenderly
    Yes, I believe I made out fine
    And yes, it's true
    I never loved nobody
    The way that I love you

    [Chorus]
    You big old cow
    You draw me out
    Lie on the ground
    Kiss on the mouth

    [Instrumental Interlude]

    [Chorus]
    You big old cow
    You draw me out
    Don't put me down
    Don't put me down

    [30:10] Crime

    Lina
    It's my only plan
    (It's my only plan)
    Eating from the palm of your hands
    Lifts me from my knees
    I am born to please
    Lina
    Let your hero shine
    (Let your hero shine)
    You will be my alibi
    Wait until the dawn
    When they look
    I'm gone
    They killed him for the crime
    But I know they're mistaken
    It was me the whole time
    What you do, I do
    (I do too, I do)
    I will go right back to you
    You know what I want
    We can have so much fun
    Again
    I waste up all my time
    I'm leaving you tomorrow
    Let me kill my mind
    Careful what you do
    Or I'm leaving without you
    Careful what you do
    Or I'm leaving without you

    [34:09] SugarHouse (Live)

    Baby I’ve been a good boy
    But sometimes I can't keep it straight
    Feels like I'm always waiting
    For another chance to play the game
    I’ll roll the dice now you better gimme a kiss for luck
    I wanna be there with you somehow
    But the SugarHouse calling my bluff
    You never really met me
    I don't think anyone has
    But we could still be players together
    Let SugarHouse pick up the tab
    I’ll be forgotten
    It'll bury me in the sand
    When our children go digging for answers
    I hope they can put me together again
