about
A synthwave sidestep for the dark baroque indie producer. Inspired by a pair of glasses and a trip to Tokyo, Don't Follow takes on the idea of hero worship and idolatry. Like Kavinsky meets Depeche Mode, best enjoyed while driving through the neon city at night.
lyrics
You raised me from the bottom of the soul what did I see
And now the distance only made me grow cold what does that mean?
They say that every man will sell out for a price well I do it free
It would be better to release your heart and leave
(Release your heart from me)
Don’t follow a thought of me
And don’t you follow love when there's no love left to feel
You reach out to hold I'm dead inside
So turn another page you know its alright
I pray you don’t follow me
Don’t follow me through the endless night
You raised me from the cold
But I don’t really care
You raised me from the cold
Oh what did I see?
Somehow the distance only made me grow cold what does that mean?
You reach out to hold I'm dead inside
So turn another page You know its alright
I pray you don’t follow me
Don’t follow me through the endless night
Don’t follow a thought of me
Don’t follow a thought of me
(Release your heart and leave)
(Release your heart and leave)
