Follow Me Down

In the breeze heads of corn they were nodding like they knew
As they beat out a path like a cloven hoof
And in the sun, in the sun, skin peeling in the sun
Laying like broken buttons, unmatched, undone

Follow me down
Follow me down
Don't follow me down
She said ‘don't follow me down'
Follow me down
Follow me down
Don't follow me down
Wide awake on a foreign mattress
‘Don't follow me down'

Drag yourself across a foreign campus

‘Don't follow me down'
And in our sleep we are all lonely babies
‘Don't follow me down'

Twitching fingers and furrowed brows
Not all our dreams are savoury
Follow me down
Follow me down
Don't follow me down
She said ‘don't follow me down'
Follow me down
Follow me down
Don't follow me down
She said ‘don't follow me down', no
Don't follow me down, no
Don't follow me down, no
Don't follow me down
Three days later and they are always done
No one like a puzzle too easy to solve
No
Don't follow me down, no
Don't follow me down, no
Don't follow me down, no
Please don't follow me down
Don't follow me down
