Name: follow you
Duration: P00H03M30S
Description: I created it by coming up with an acoustic version, and from there I turned it into a full song in my DAW. I wrote the lyrics because I felt so static and I couldn't help it. Nothing to do but to be self destructive. The chorus is about how sometimes we have no choice but to follow "the man". We're in a toxic relationship with the societal structures around us, and there's no way out.

lyrics

Cigarettes
In my head
Waste my time
Stand and stare

At the sun
Going down now
Don't leave me behind
Your love is a dull knife

I'll follow you
Tomorrow when I'm gone
I'll know this is a good song
Cause when we go
I'll know your not alone
No matter what I've lost
I'll follow you

Watch it burn
On the ground
I hate to say goodbye
But nothing ever changes around here

I'll follow you
Tomorrow when I'm gone
I'll know this is a good song
Cause when we go
I'll know your not alone
No matter what I've lost
I'll follow you

I'll follow you
Tomorrow when I'm gone
I'll know this is a good song
Cause when we go
I'll know your not alone
No matter what I've lost
I'll follow you
