Song Lyrics:

Follow Their Lead
by Matt Simons

Sitting, spitting lyrical cliches
Holding on to what Id hoped was just a phase
Watch it closer, as it melts and dies
Give them what they want, well maybe they want lies
How am I, supposed to show them, exactly how I feel

Find a way out, find a way to cheat
Thats what happens, when true expressions obsolete
Its all the same, cant come out with something new
Ill put it down if its the last thing I can do
How am I'm supposed to show them, exactly how I feel

How can I stand apart
And speak directly from the heart
Since when did it all get so simplistic
Call me pessimistic but I'm only realistic

Follow their lead, follow their lead
Dont ever question what they ask you to believe
Follow their lead, follow their lead

Bare, plain melodies, what ever makes them stick
Turn off the radio I dont want to get sick
Shouldnt there be meaning, to the song I sing
It all makes sense I guess but it doesnt mean a thing
How am I supposed to show them exactly how I feel

All the antics, too clear what its for
Hide the fact its not about music anymore
Whats the problem, are the artists full of fear
Its just sad when thats all I ever hear

How am I, supposed to tell you, exactly how I feel

How can I stand apart
And speak directly from the heart
Since when did it all get so simplistic
Call me pessimistic but I'm only realistic

Follow their lead, follow their lead
Dont ever question what they ask you to believe
Follow their lead, follow their lead

Feeling lost, sometimes its best to run and hide
Or face the fact theres a new day the music died
