I know this song is supposed to be about the loss of someone you love, but it hit me in a similar spot. I was bullied throughout my school years up until I reached high school and I only had one friend who I had met in 3rd grade. He had been my only friend and I was his only friend as we were the ānerdsā who were outcasted and bullied by everyone. We had such a deep connection and he was more similar to me than anyone else Iāve ever met. In 6th grade, he told me he would be moving to another state over the summer. I had a learning disability and my mind was also quite innocent and I was a very imaginative kid, I had not experienced much reality in my life yet. I was not able to fully understand what this would mean. I had not had any contact with him as I had just recently gotten my first mobile device and I had no social media or friends to share contact with, nor did I even understand how that worked. Over the summer I started learning new things and it was a huge growth period for my mind and mental state, probably the biggest change in my own self Iāve ever experienced. I was so excited to share this with him when I got back. I remember I came into school so excited to share everything with him, to share my new experiences and growth. But he was not in his usual spot. After a little bit, it dawned on me. I remembered her told me he would be moving. Only at that point did I fully understand what that meant, that he would not be there anymore and I had no contact with him. This started my years of depression and anxiety which I am still currently facing. I am an older and much stronger Mentally and physically person now, although not emotionally, still whenever I hear this song I canāt help but to burst into tears as it forces me into my memories about him and how he left. How I wish he would come back, how I wasnāt ready for him to go. He was my only true friend and it struck me like a hammer. I love this song. It embodies everything I feel into the minute and a half that heās singing. Itās beautiful. Alex g is truly one of the most underrated musicians out there. Thank you for this song, it has helped me through a lot.

I cried. I've been having thoughts of suicide lately more than usual. This just made me think of all of the people I love in my life. I think I've been looking for more than I need. I love my family, I love my friends, and I'm happy they are here with me. I think they love me too. Thank you for this, I love you, this is probably the 3rd song I've ever heard from you. Anyone who is reading this and feels lonely come chat.

This music video brings me to tears because like many people in the comment section , it reminds me of friends Iāve lost to overdose throughout the past few years of my life. Coping with loss has been very difficult for me. I love that the end of this video implies that even though theyāre gone theyāre always with you and theyāll always be apart of you. Its comforting to listen to this and read these comments and know Iām not alone in feeling like this.

Bright boy I can help you
If you let me take your hand
Bring you right to promise land
Bring you right to promise
Bright boy I could love you
If you let me be your wife
Love you so for all my life
Love you so for all my
Waiting by the water
You return with eyes cast down
Bright boy what has made you frown
Bright boy what has made you
Waiting by the water
Sun is setting on the sea
Bright boy please return to me
Bright boy please return to

No one will read this but this song pretty much dragged me through my senior year of high school. Moved eight hours away from my home to finish school and shortly after I met my twin flame, Lucas. We were never in any type of romantic relationship, but our minds and our emotions were mirrored by each other on a cosmic level. His last name is Bright (bright boy) and I will always hear this song and feel his soul sitting with me. And thatās what makes this video so perfect for me. I just moved away and Iām experiencing the eerie yet comfortable sensation of knowing that someone who canāt be with you in the flesh can still be felt and seen and talked to in your head. Iāll be getting a tattoo of the two dogs in a few weeks. Thank you again Alex.

theres something really tragic about how the black wolf friend "comes back" when white wolf friend is going through his life. i think that it's supposed to resemble how when someone you love dies, you see them everywhere. wether it be the places you spent time together or the things you liked or things that are unexplainably... them. they always follow you.

I feel this song, as both being about me, but also about my best friend who passed away from an OD last year and a months change. This kid was so smart, but he destroyed his mind with drugs and fell in and out of trouble. I never got as bad as him, but I'm sure people around me felt the same. I've been on both sides of this song, it has a special place for me.

One of my best friends died of an overdose about 6 months ago. I discovered this song and video right after he died and started watching it constantly and started thinking of the black dog as my friend. I was helping my friends brother move my friends stuff out of his apartment, and I ended up looking through my friends sketchbook and found a drawing of a dog that looks a lot like the black dog. I ended up getting it tattooed on my arm.
