Sharing a raw, early version of something new I’m working on.

"Hold My Own" is a late-night reflection on the silence that grows between people, the feeling of being physically near someone while emotionally miles apart. It’s about the cruelty of silence and trying to find your footing when the days start to blur.

Still finding the final shape for this one, but wanted to share the idea in its stripped-back form.

Thank you for listening.

'Cause I've been here for, 
been here for so long 
And I wonder how to hold my own 
And I hear you singing into the night 
Watch as the moon rises high 
The sun won't know it's own daylight

I Never knew you could be so cruel
I never knew you could be so cruel 
Without saying a word to me 
Without saying a word to me


Hold My Own

I’m a songwriter first and last - not a performer. My focus is on the craft of the song itself, which is why my music has such a wide range. I don’t have one sound; I write for other voices and a vast variety of genres.

You won't find my face on a stage or my voice on a mic. My tracks aren't about building my own brand; they’re about creating a mood or a story that comes fully to life through the right singer.

Howdy! I’m Alexander Rivers, a songwriter, guitarist, and student of voice. These are raw, one-take sketches recorded on my phone whenever I pick up a guitar. I’m finding my sound, stretching into something new, just truth in the moment. I'm working on a more polished version of these songs (and others) to put in an album one day.

Some of these songs reflect hard things, grief, loss, mental health. If you’re already carrying something heavy, and these songs speak to it, please know you’re not alone. Music is how I process pain, maybe it helps you too.
