I'M 5 YEARS LATE, WTF??? THIS IS SO GOOOOOOOD

Yall are talking about her song but what about her facial expression and her movements...she has such strong expressive qualities

Five, four, three, two, one Five, four, three, two, one He holds the gun against my head I close my eyes and bang I am dead I know he knows that he's killing me for mercy And here I go Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh And here I go Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh And he holds my body in his arms He didn't mean to do no harm And he holds me tight Oh, he did it all to spare me from the awful things in life that comes And he cries and cries I know he knows that he's killing me for mercy And here I go Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh And here I go Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh He holds my body in his arms He didn't mean to do no harm And he holds me tight He did it all to spare me from the awful things in life that comes And he cries and cries Five, four, three, two, one Five, four, three, two, one Five, four, three, two, one The gun is gone And so am I And here I go

The Flash introduced me to Aurora and m glad that googled this song that day. Her voice is so sleek, clear, pure and just soulful

99% of the comments: RIP HG Wells, came here from the Flash Me: random person who stumbled across Aurora 10 mins ago and am now on a mission to listen to every single one of her songs

This song feels like one of those books that you read and then you think about it for days because it’s just that haunting

I did not read all the comments but if no one mentioned it already: The male background voice nailed it wonderful too, perfect adding to here.

All Flash fans know about this song... It's been years and I still listen to it

I don't understand why people say she's like other singers, she is original and authentic, she doesn't copy anyone and doesn't use playback because her voice is beautiful and she doesn't need to be like other one, she's just herself, she writes her own music because she is very creative and I love her for that.

When she says ,, five, four, three, two, one", my heart literally breaks into pieces. Every. Single. Time. So much pain in her voice. So many feelings...

She is pure talent. She doesn’t need overdubbed vocals or over budget videos to express herself. She can express pure emotion just by her voice and and how she moves.

How did I not know of her til this week? I've heard and have seen countless performers in my 62 years, but I don't recall any of them gripping me and making me feel the way she does. I don't want to try or care to explain what she does. I just know it's so genuine and unique. A talent like this is a rarity

"Oh, he did it all to spare me from The awful things in life that comes And he cries and cries" It´s heavy.

Aurora not is like Lorde, Sia or anything. Aurora is just Aurora. Is amazing.

R.I.P. HR WELLS

This song is so absolutely beautiful and put me in tears immediately... Trigger warning for what I am about to say. 24 years ago I had a gun to my head staring down the barrel of a loaded gun and on the other end was my now ex telling me to say my final prayers. God was able to give me the words and ability to get out. This song just made that moment in time come right back but my pain has made me the person I am today. I am thankful I am here if you are in an abusive relationship please leave before it is to late. It was almost to late for me.

I feel bad for those who haven't found Aurora yet

she made the perfect video for her own music all by herself. she is not an artist, she is art.

She writes, sings and expresses her songs like she experiences the scenes. It's haunting

What impresses me the most is that the butterflies are alive and don't move away from her despite her movements; they love her and stay in her hair.

I’ve been meaning to leave a comment on this song for a long time now. Anyone who may be triggered by abuse should not read on This song has helped me so much to process a traumatic event from my childhood. When I was little my mother tried to drown me in a bathtub. The subject of this song may not be exactly the same, and I may have “lived” through my moms attempted murder, but the way she describes the nuance of this kind of a scenario.... it helped me find deeper understanding and peace. Sometimes a person can be so disturbed and broken and ill that they convince themselves that committing an atrocity against another human is actually a good thing, that it’s good for them. This is a nuance and subtlety that I feel most people don’t understand about abuse, but I feel aurora captured perfectly in this song. This is a part of why working through trauma can be so confusing and tricky, as traumatic as an event can be it’s all the nuances and subtlety and normalizing that you go through that can make it hard to let go of. Thank you aurora for making this song. It may not have been your intention to help anyone with this song, you may have just wanted to make something dark and interesting, but you should know that in that process you helped one of your fans immensely. I will be forever grateful for this piece of art ♥️

I see this song as the song about killing your most vulnerable and gentle parts to cope with awful things in the world and stay alive. You did the necessary thing to survive but you know the best part of you - soft and kind - is gone I know it's not true but it feels good for me to interpret the song this way

I am yet to find a song by her that doesn’t absolutely slap! No matter what mood you’re in she has a song for it, and even if she doesn’t, she’ll put you in the right mood for it! She speaks with such raw emotion that targets out primal human emotions and resonates with them so perfectly. She is truly an ethereal angel!

Five, four, three, two, one. Five, four, three, two, one. He holds the gun against my head. I close my eyes - and bang! I am dead. I know. He knows that he‘s killing me for mercy. And here I go - Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. And here I go - Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. And he holds my body in his arms. He didn't mean to do no harm. And he holds me tight. Oh, he did it all to spare me from the awful things in life that comes. And he cries. And cries. I know. He knows that he‘s killing me for mercy. And here I go - Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. And here I go - Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. He holds my body in his arms. He didn't mean to do no harm. And he holds me tight. Oh, he did it all to spare me from the awful things in life that comes. And he cries. And cries. Five, four, three, two, one. Five, four, three, two, one. Five, four, three, two, one. The gun is gone and so am I. And here I go.

"Only are two importants moments in life,when you born and when you know for what" R.I.P H.R Wells

One of the Flash's best moments came from this song

My 10th time rewatching flash and I finally came to actually listen to this beautiful song

Im so glad the flash introduced me to this song its amazing!

This is recorded by one take. No interruptions. Let that sink in

Crap even after years of seeing this, it still has the goosebumps effects. Damn we are lucky to hear such angelic voice on earth.

RIP HR Wells...its your song.

I found her by mistake on youtube and now i can't stop listening her songs. It's just stunning to see how many emotions she shares with every single damn note...amazing artist. M A S T E R P I E C E

A moment of silence for the people who still haven't found Aurora's beautiful music and voice.

What a beautifull song, she is trully talented, gifted and hard worker, when ppl have those atributes its a matter of time for other people to find them and appreciate what they do

I DISCOVERED AURORA THIS YEAR IN 2024 AND I GOTTA SAY SHE IS AN ARTISTIC,BEST MUSICIAN SINGER AND U CAN FEEL IT IN THE RHYTHEM THAT SHE FOR REAL

Rip H.R Wells

I get goosebumps everytime i hear this song, mostly because of The Flash, with Iris and H.R Wells

One of auroras best songs, full of dark emotion,and still so much light, its beautiful...♤♡♧♡

I’m glad Aurora is finally getting the recognition she deserves. I’ve loved her music since high school when a friend showed me. It used to be one of the only things I could listen to to help with anxiety.

I was trying to think of the meaning of this song, other than it just being beautiful. How did she make this song, how did she feel, what did she see to inspire this. At first I thought this correlated to domestic abuse and the killing was a metaphor for being infinitely trapped, how the person would make excuses saying he was doing her a favor, etc. And then I remembered a tragedy that happened in my town. A man got into an arguement with his wife, I dont exactly remember what caused it or what it was even about. I'm not sure if they were abusive or any of the background related to their relationship, however, that argument made him take his daughter and drive off to the end of the street. Apparently the argument transferred to text and the mother said something about her getting custody of their daughter and how he will never see her again and he will go to jail for kidnapping. He replied with something along the lines of that he didnt want him or his daughter to live in this kind of cruel world. He doesnt want her to get hurt in the way hes been hurt, among other things. Apparently this guy also had a gun with him. So after having sent that text, he pulled out his gun, looked back to his daughter (who was a one year old baby) and he shot her. I dont know if she instantly died, or it took awhile, but then apparently he shot himself afterwards. The crazy thing is, that night my mom was coming home from work and she passed by, and saw the vehicle that this occurred in. And apparently a few minutes later, there was gun shots. And I remember hearing the gunshots too. Its nobodies fault for why this happened other than the couple involved, but if only my mom knew something was going to happen, maybe she could have stopped it. After remembering what happened a few years ago in our home town, I realized this song relates to that story so well. I'm not sure if that's the actual inspiration behind the song, but that's my meaning for this song. And now its uncovered a whole spectrum of realities to my eyesight.

The biggest crime is that this song is only 3 minutes 35 seconds. This is such a masterpiece

Love the ethereal and eerie feeling of this song

Lyrics ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ five, four, three, two, one five, four, three, two, one He holds... the gun... against. my head I close... my eyes... and bang...

am I the only one, that just somehow found this on youtube and has loved it ever since...

season 3 of the flash was great RIP H.R Wells

Only she can create the most pure reason to murder someone you love. Just being able to think of that perspective is mind blowing to me. Brings tears to my eyes. Aurora you make every day more meaningful since your music has entered my life. If you see this I praise and am eternally thankful for your existence!

Aurora can be identified as a butterfly and as a wolf simutaneously - her work is so delicate and brutal at the same time

I've read a lot of theories about this song, and I agree with all the theories. About it being her killing herself, or that the woman is sick and the man killed her so she didn't have to suffer. Or that it's about a woman in an abusive relationship and is justifying the abusers actions towards her. Here's mine: Aurora is well know for writing songs about nature, right. So I think the song is about humans and mother nature. Humans are sometimes referred to as mankind (he). We (he) are ruining our nature (mother). So mother is trying to justify our actions towards her, even though she knows that it's wrong and it's hurting her. "He's killing me for mercy". Another reason why I think it's about nature, is because Aurora has butterflies on her. Meaning she represents the nature. Does this even make sense, lol.😂 I really love this song!❤

She is not just a singer she is everything a marvelous actress and she knows how to react and dance her facial expressions are 💥🔥 what a beautiful soul she is💗

Its a masterpiece, all these emotions, the whole story, the music video, the voice.. it gets me everytime.

someone in 2021 in the middle of a pandemic has not yet overcome how wonderful this song is?

I got this from the flash when HR dies I cryed

When I say I have loved every song, video of her and interview of her I mean it with all my being. I’ve loved her consistently for years, and I have never liked an artist for that long ( I get bored easily). Her messages stay consistent yet change in a way it feels your growing with her and the music and the lyrics are poetry. Beautiful, soulful poetry. Not to mention her refreshing, weird, pure and beautiful personality that I find so funny haha. She is absolutely my favorite artist and singer. I wish her so much love and success. 💕💕

I’ve been listening to her since very early middle school and I love every second of it

i love her hand motions. HER VOICE. her expressions. they are all so meaningful.

Your voice is very relaxing, beautiful, it makes me wanna cry but for happiness :')

My God the depth of beauty (and sheer tragedy) to this song is endless!

In 2017 I started listening to Aurora, I went through a lot but I feel quite identified when Aurora was a little darker, or depressive for me, now she is very pretty I still love her, she marked my childhood.

RIP HR Wells. The sacrifice and the moment in The Flash brought me to this song. And now I'm glad I've discovered Aurora

As I watch her sing, it's as if she imagines the events happening to her or sees's the events and tells what she is seeing to us, with her music. Her body language and voice in the videos are very intense. I love it!

I always just kinda brushed her off as that tik tok pop dance girl but i went through her discography this morning and fell in love. Theyre all fantastic. This might be my favorite.

We had to put to sleep our dog today, and this songs helps a lot. Mainly my wife, she had him for 14 years. Thank you Aurora for this song.

Murder Song Five, four, three, two, one Five, four, three, two, one He holds the gun against my head I close my eyes and bang, I am dead I know he knows that he’s killing me for mercy And here I go Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh And here I go Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh He holds my body in his arms He didn't mean to do no harm And he holds me tight (Oh) He did it all to spare me from The awful things in life that comes And he cries and cries I know he knows that he’s killing me for mercy And here I go Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh And here I go Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh He holds my body in his arms He didn't mean to do no harm And he holds me tight (Oh) He did it all to spare me from The awful things in life that comes And he cries and cries Five, four, three, two, one Five, four, three, two, one Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Five, four, three, two, one Five, four, three, two, one Five, four, three, two, one The gun is gone and so am I And here I go

I can't get a butterfly to stay on me for 5 seconds what's your secret

Why does she keep getting to me.😭😭😭. I love her, she understands me the most.

I can only hope more and more people find aurora 💚 shes an insane vocalist..but her interpretive dancing and movements along with her expressions and true depth of her emotions while performing is what brings goosebumps to me .. no matter how many times I listen or watch her..I will ALWAYS get aurora goosebumps. She deserves the best in life and to get her messages across!

This is actually a really emotional song, no matter what it's really about honestly.

"It took strength and you gave it to me" - H.R

Anyone watch this in 2022? I am not going to lie I was tearing up to this because she was telling a story and out of no where I was feeling the emotions that she was portraying

To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind may clarity replace confusion. may peace and calmness fill your life. ❤❤❤

I watched an interview where the guy was like "What demons could you possibly have? You're 19." He clearly didn't understand poets and songwriters at all. Aurora is a gift to the world.

Who came here from Teen Wolf Season 6 Episode 7. The scene with Lydia trying to get Stilinski to remember Stiles. This song and that scene had me in tears.

She has the most unique voice, captivating.🥰

“I know he knows that he is killing me for mercy” although i know this lyric might signify something else in her perspective or for other people but i correlate this to the millions of women in the world that are abused by husbands, fathers brothers and etc., that all say they are doing it for the sake of their lives and protection as someone who relates to this as well i find this song soul crushing.

I accidentally search this on the internet. Best accident ever

So beautiful. Gives me chills. In a way she reminds me of Daughter.

It's wonderfull how she could deliver the pain

Those butterflies stayed put through the entire song. Only Aurora is capable of doing something like that.

I personally interpret this song as about someone in her life who smothered her to protect her but it was killing her spirit. Liberation from chains seems to be a consistent theme in her music. Perhaps she had a mother or father who was overprotective of her?

Is anyone here just cause they like AURORA?

I wish they had Aurora founded much more available to everyone globally as I'm in the UK & by fate has it I found her now. Aurora is a true Angel 😇

I remember this was on the flash

These movements…this pushing and pulling of energy in her words and gestures…I feel it so deeply. Singing isn’t just a talent. It’s a way to ground your soul. Tune into a higher vibration. This human knows how to channel it. Connect to it. It’s powerful. It’s such a high frequency. And if you know this ability to capture your soul in song, you felt home in her voice immediately. I hope she knows how healing her work is.

Someone's songs actually have meaning thank you

I have avoided this song until now. it's really powerful

She's absolutely amazing

If it wasn’t for the *flash* I wouldn’t have known that *AURORA* existed

yrics Five, four, three, two, one Five, four, three, two, one He holds the gun against my head I close my eyes and bang I am dead I know he knows that he’s killing me for mercy And here I go Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh And here I go Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh He holds my body in his arms He didn't mean to do no harm And he holds me tight Oh, he did it all to spare me from the awful things in life that comes And he cries and cries I know he knows that he’s killing me for mercy And here I go Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh And here I go Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh He holds my body in his arms He didn't mean to do no harm And he cries and cries He did it all to spare me from the awful things in life that comes And he cries and cries Five, four, three, two, one Five, four, three, two, one Ah Ah Ah Ah Five, four, three, two, one Five, four, three, two, one Five, four, three, two, one The gun is gone And so am I And here I go

I cannot believe i’ve only just found this song from aurora, i’ve listened to almost everything but this masterpiece, i’ve missed so much 😢

Wow so sad! The instrumental matches it beautifully. And adding in the male vocals so slightly. Beautiful.

R.I.P HR HE NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. HE WAS A GREAT AND BRAVE MAN. HE RISKED HIS LIFE TO SAVE ANOTHER. AND THAT IS A MAN IF YOU TELL ME.😢😢

Billie: spiders Aurora: moths (Not that they’re the same they’re both unique) Edit: stop hating on both artists they’re both good and I never even compared them

The video ..i cant even fathom the words .. CAPTIVATING, ENTRANCING, HEALING, FKN BEAUTIFUL

Everyone talks about how amazingly emotional she sings, however I think they aren’t grasping it fully. One thing I’ve noticed about Aurora is that when she’s singing a sad or emotional song, she belts the same way when you sob. Just an uncontrollable release. I think that’s what makes it so powerful, is because it subconsciously makes us think of the absolute intensity of full on sobbing, and it brings the feelings in the song to a whole new level. I also love so much in this song the guitar. Because it ALSO mimics sobbing to me. An example is here, you get that absolute breathtaking release in 2:49 “aaand criiiiiees!” The same way you feel after letting out a sob, but then the guitar jolts you back to reality 2:57 just like one of those super deep sniffles.

*you're afraid to remember him because you're afraid of what it means ~Lydia Martin*

The girl is so good at acting, she is a bit scary, but the thing that scares me the most are those butterflies MY GOHD WHY AM I SO SCARED OF BUTTERFLIES

My goodness if I didn’t watch the flash I really about to miss this aorora the wonderful talent.

2:35 that butterfly in Aurora's hair felt that note...

I miss H.R. He died as a hero. I literally cried because he sacrificed himself to prove that he was worth being a hero! :,( This song intensifies that feeling a lot more!!!

can we take a moment to praise her AMAZING acting skills????
