"Follow You" LYRICS

[Intro: BEXEY] You know I got my granddad's pistol in that antique cabinet (Mm) I be having more interesting conversations with it Than those that are surrounding me Babe (What?) Take a shot (Are you talking to me?) Bring Me the Horizon Take a shot, yeah, take a shot (Me?) Yeah, yeah, take a shot, yeah, take a shot [Verse 1: BEXEY] I got my granddaddy's motherfuckin' pistol I let it sleep on the antique cabinet (I let it sleep) I got a fist full of acid when I smack you in your face LSD up in your brain, now you travelin' Send me a postcard, gang of wolves like Mozart Take a quick sip of the potion just to get the flow started up He's a renegade, featherweight, call the demons, let 'em play Burn, kick the door off the bitch like I'm Leatherface Somebody bring me the horizon, this view is boring me Kicked out of my own funeral for being drunk and disorderly Talk to an angel with a tilted halo when I fall asleep Arguin' in the mirror like DeNiro, "You talking to me?" I'm the only one here, I cannot hear what you're saying I'm Van Gogh with one ear, Van Go, Van Hoff Whatever floats your paper boat We all float down here, baby, just let it go Yeah, I set the flow [Chorus: Oli Sykes] I may never get no sleep 'cause my head's full of hyenas And my demons, they got demons, and I've no more tears to feed them I guess I'm bet-better off, off alone Bet-better off, off alone Bet-better off, off alone Bet-better off, off alone [Instrumental Break] [Interlude] K-holing in your eyes, goodbye Normandy, you're high, goodbye Who we? Braid your eyes? Goodbye Who will brave your hive? Goodbye [Chorus: Oli Sykes & Jamie McLees] I may never get much sleep 'cause my head's full of hyenas And my demons, they got demons, and I've no more tears to feed them I guess I'm bet-better off, off alone Bet-better off, off alone Bet-better off, off alone Bet-better off, off alone I may never get much sleep 'cause my head's full of hyenas And my demons, they got demons, and I've no more tears to feed them I guess I'm bet-better off, off alone Bet-better off, off alone Bet-better off, off alone Bet-better off, off alone I may never get much sleep 'cause my head's full of hyenas And my demons, they got demons, and I've no more tears to feed them I guess I'm bet-better off, off alone (Ayy, ayy, ayy, embrace) Bet-better off, off alone (Ayy, ayy, ayy, erase) Bet-better off, off alone (Ayy, ayy, ayy, embrace) Bet-better off, off alone (Ayy, ayy, ayy, erase) I may never get much sleep 'cause my head's full of hyenas And my demons, they got demons, and I've no more tears to feed them [Verse 2: Jamie McLees] Vibration A shock to the system Contradiction, death by virus Ayy, ayy, ayy, embrace Ayy, ayy, ayy, erase Ayy, ayy, ayy, embrace Ayy, ayy, ayy, erase [Instrumental Break] [Monologue: Oli Sykes] Check, check Yo, can you hear me? Close your eyes Close your eyes Close your eyes Close your eyes Imagine there's a candle in your point of reference Look at the candle [Instrumental Break] [Monologue: Oli Sykes] Tune in to the sound, don't think about anything else Focus on the point, I said a candle, didn't I? But I mean, like, well Just imagine seeing it in your mind's eye And look at it And visualise it And shit'll start to glow The black'll start to glow The black The dark will start to glow I'm serious, man This is, it might seem cringe as fuck, but actually do it Now Focus [Instrumental Break] [Monologue: Oli Sykes] I wanna say something I wanna talk to you but I don't even know what to say I feel like there's a truth that we all don't know And I think we've been designed To just do what we have— I-I think we got more than five senses I think we got more than five senses But we're never gonna find out any of the senses Because we're so fuckin' busy, so wrapped up So caught up in what we are actually doing every single day Like think when someone discovered fire What the fuck would that have looked like? How? So there's fire, right? Do we reckon we've just discovered everything there is to discover? Focus, focus [Instrumental Break] [Monologue: Oli Sykes] The universe is full of surprises It's just waitin' for us Just waitin' for our wits to get sharper Just waitin' for us to actually open Mad as fuck when you think about it Because it don't make sense, does it? I might sound like a proper idiot, but, like Try and figure out how anything actually works How-how we got here don't make any sense, so It's not going There's no way It's a little bit scarier Feel like, a little bit like something that pops off I'm just tired, I guess Focus, focus Focus, focus on whatever you want Whatever you want you can have 'Cause I was literally the biggest loser in the world ADHD, I had no friends I literally, literally, I'm not even saying that like, like a cliche thing I had literally no world, I would hang out with My friends used to just tell me one time it would stop Mates used to nick all my money off me All my video games, that shit, PlayStation, TVs and shit And I got bullied to fuck My life was shit And I have no idea how I managed to do something Where I actually get to do things that I like And live a life where I'm happy But I know it wasn't from school I didn't learn fuckin' shit from school, I don't know anything I don't know anything about geography I don't know anything about motherfuckin' French I know fuck all, to be honest, I'm a dipshit French All I know is I don't even fucking know sometimes That sounds cheesy as shit to say "Follow your dreams" 'Cause I don't even know if that's what I did I just literally saw Daryl Palumbo on a video Screamin' his tits off, and that looked like fun And I wanted to do that as a job I thought that would be cool And I don't have any musical skills, I can't sing I mean I can sing now kind of, but, you know We use Autotune and shit And I can't sing well, I just have passion and lyrics And I just beg and I borrow and I steal and rip people off You know, like, you got Like, like, uh, "nihilist blues", that melody Someone said, "Oh, that's like Evanescence" I'm like, "Yeah, must have been" Must have, we fuckin' subconsciously ripped it off It's not like, I'm like not a fucking genius whatsoever Just gettin' on and feel stuff and vibe And that's mad, innit? I'm not mad that I get to do what I want to do And so many, so, so many people have such fucking shit lives That sucks so much, it breaks my heart so much Because fuckin' I don't know Like, every, we just look at things 'Cause we're human, we think that How do I say this without people gettin' pissed off at me? Like, humans are all aligned, but you can tell If you look at any other creature's eyes It's, we're all here, we all feel, we're all scared We all got that fuckin' feeling in our stomachs that make us wanna kill ourselves It's always too much And it's so fuckin' unfair that there's people at the top And people at the bottom And there's, there's animals at the bottom And there's animals that get grinded into fucking shit And there's slaves and just like, just I mean I'm guilty, I'm a fuckin' Like, I ain't a saint, but I love everyone and everything so much I really, honestly do Like I want, I just, I want the best for all 'Cause what if it's like, it sounds mad as fuck But people believe in God, don't they? And people believe in people looking down on us and shit like that So it's not that mad to think that what if this is a classroom? Teacher room? What if people are watching us? What if something bigger is looking down on us? And seeing how we do And seeing if we're good enough for the next stage? 'Cause we need to be better I need to get better, I need to be a better person We all need to be better people It's not about what tastes good or what feels good or how cool you look Or who likes you and shit We need to like fucking come together, it's maddening It's all cliche shit, it just sounds like such bollocks But we need to fuckin' do this We're literally at the end, doesn't it feel like that to you? It feels like it to me Feels like we're at the end of everything And it feels like it's gonna be like some fuckin' massive volcano Or eruption or fuckin' tsunami will happen You know what that's what, that's what's gonna happen? Some fuckin' mental disaster in a couple of years Like mental, mental, mental disaster Whether it's natural or whatever And then everyone's gonna go fuckin', oh, right, we need to sort it out now We need to do something about this now But, but we fuckin' need to do something But we need to do it now And why not? It's not that bad, eatin' like Yeah, all right, we get it, meat tastes good And, come on, man, they're alive These things are living, they're living creatures Like, what the fuck? We don't need it Do you need it? No, and I'm not, I'm a hypocrite 'Cause I've got all this shit I don't need too But like, I think we all need to start thinkin' about what we actually really fuckin' want If you really fuckin' want something, you can have it Have it, sure, but end of the day, if you, like if You want something so bad that it's worth someone else's pain and suffering I don't fuckin' think you do Focus Focus on what you want I'm serious, I'm gonna stop talking now Focus Are you recording? Yeah, it's all good
