about

“They Still Follow” is a dark, driving song about forever being followed by your demons. It features high energy, heavy acoustic and electric guitars and has a grunge/country feel.

lyrics

Here you see me run through the fields under moonlight at midnight
Trying to free myself from the demons, they are always biting
See this soul on my sleeve, ragged from valid attempts to flee
But they still follow me yeah, how they still follow me

They still follow, now they still follow me
What else can I be as long as they still follow me?
They still follow, yeah they still follow me
How else can I breathe as long as they still follow me?

Here I run dirt road under feet, will they follow me to my grave?
... My final resting place
All the years spent countless times wondering what was in line for me
But you see, they still follow me

They still follow, yeah they still follow me
What else can I be as long as they still follow me?
They still follow, I cannot be free
How else can I breathe as long as they still follow me?
They still follow, please set me free
Long eternity, as they still follow me
Oh, the more I plea, no they still follow me
They’re still inside of me, inside of me, yeah

Still follow, still follow, still follow, now they still follow me!
Still follow, still follow, still follow, now they still follow me!

For eternity, down onto my knees, they’re inside of me
Yeah, they still follow me
For eternity, down onto my knees, they’re inside of me
NOW THEY STILL FOLLOW ME!

Still follow, still follow, still follow, now they still follow me!
Still follow, still follow, still follow, now they still follow me!
