Blindly Follow

when home feels like miles away

and theres nothing to look at but yourself

being lethargic in your own right

helps put your feelings on the shelf

talk to me when I’ve become older

Because right now is for ******* up

Happier than I’ve ever been

chasing my own shadow

even though I will never be taller than it

 

Walk with me through this mangled landscape

The most beautiful pavement you’ve ever seen

Talking to myself out in the open

Its better not to speak

 

You wouldn’t put me in a hole with nasty lovers

But you would take me to the peak of misery

I’ll follow you blindly till I am made up

I’ll follow you blindly because its easier not to see
