The Follower

The Oedipus Complex · Grey Skies Bruising [2014]

In effervescence it glows

Under the pale moonlight

A hard earned layer of snow

To pave our miseries in white

Lift up your head

Endure the moment

Seems so rare to be proud sometimes



And like that

Crashing around you

Missed opportunity

And like that

Falling beside you

The follower stalks for the prey



With the self loathing incline

I radiate dull grey

Chewing the nails from my fingers

Questions chase the doubts away

Break the smile

For satisfaction

It's the chance to play god tonight



And like that

Crashing around you

Missed opportunity

And like that

Falling beside you

The follower stalks for the prey

And like that

Crashing around you

Missed opportunity

And like that

Falling beside you

The follower stalks for the prey



I want to feel so unsuspecting

Be the meat of the meal

Play the part of the game

So desired



I'll be the center of the attention

I'll be the apple rotting in your eye

I'll be there to stain you again



And like that

Crashing around you

Missed opportunity

And like that

Falling beside you

The follower stalks for the prey

And like that

Crashing around you

Missed opportunity

And like that

Falling beside you

The follower stalks for the prey
