I'll follow you, darling,
I'll follow wherever you may lead.
Until the sky burns green and
And we've seen trees grow legs,
Just to fall to their snapping knees.


I'll follow you, darling, I'll follow you,
My heart is locked to yours.
Attached by a weighty chain,
That runs under my criss-cross scarred
Paper skin like iron-link veins,
A spiderweb of rust that aches on rainy days.


I'll follow you, darling,
If you'll but do the same.
If I were to leave your side,
Would you call my name?
When you noticed me not existing next to you
Would you feel anything?


More than us, I want you to just
Please, feel something.
Nothing amazing, but hey, it's something.
