Lyrics

The Follow Through

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

pride

It leaves you hollow

Another attempt

Just to settle the score

A war, you know the one you built it up

It's real defining

Humiliation

Knocks at your door

And you say i blow up

I say you cave in

We never found the line between

The real and pretend

You know you should accept it

This is really the end

I know for sure, it's what i have to do

Is follow through

And everything i ever want to be

The only one i ever need to know

I'd wait for you till time lay down to sleep

And i'd sneak across the world to let her know

Yeah that's what i do

Yeah i follow through

Oh i follow through

And here i stand

I'm too close but still you're far away

You never tried but i did

And we still remain divided

Oh i can't believe that your heart's still beating

It's beating for me at all

How sad of you

But i'm not sad at all

And you say i blow up

I say you cave in

We never found the line between

The real and pretend

You know you should accept it

This is really the end

I know for sure, it's what i have to do

Is follow through

And everything i ever want to be

The only one i ever need to know

I'd wait for you till time lay down to sleep

And i'd sneak across the world to let her know

And as it falls down into night we run away

And once again divided

But each one knows just what we have to do

We do

We have to...follow through

I will lay down my heart

I will let you go

That's what's best for us all

I will lay down my heart (cause now we stand beneath the clouds and god above)

I will let you go (like we did before)

That's what's best for us all (but this time for her)

(i'll follow through)

And everything i ever want to be

The only thing i ever need to know

I'd wait for you till time lay down to sleep

And i'd sneak across the world to let her know

Hold my heart

Patiently

Take my hand

Walk with me

Cause when the evening comes

We'll set the world on fire

And i was wrong

Let me help you live on

And everything i ever want to be

The only one i ever need to know

I'd wait for you till time lay down to sleep

And i'd sneak across the world to let her know

And as it falls down into night we run away

And once again divided

But each one knows just what we have to do

We do

We have to...follow through

Hold my heart

Patiently

Take my hand

Walk with me

Cause when the evening comes

We'll set the world on fire

And i was wrong

Let me help you live on
