Hozier Analysis- "To Be Alone" (Patreon)

I discuss Hozier's use of diction, alliteration, personification, metaphor and more in this track from his self-titled album. I also discuss how this song fits into the rest of the album thematically. 

Trigger Warning- Mentions of rape/assault 

Note- Please excuse the terrible quality/lighting. I am still figuring out my set-up at my new apartment. I do plan on going shopping soon for some new lights, and I will start using my actual video camera again as well!
