Hear the Betrayal!

2. Follow Me lyrics
by Uncle Kracker

You don't know how you met me
You don't know why
You can't turn around and say goodbye
All you know is when I'm with you
I make you free
And swim through your veins like a fish in the sea
I'm singin'

[CHORUS]
Follow me everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you
Want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me

I'm not worried 'bout the ring you wear
Cuz as long as no one knows than nobody can care
You're feelin' guilty and I'm well aware
But you don't look ashamed and baby I'm not scared
I'm singin'

Won't give you money
I can't give you the sky
You're better off if you don't ask why
I'm not the reason that you go astray and
We'll be all right if you don't ask me to stay

You don't know how you met me
You don't know why
You can't turn around and say goodbye
All you know is when I'm with you
I make you free
And swim through your veins like a fish in the sea
I'm singin'



  • I chose this song because when you actually hear this song you would never know it was about cheating on someone. As i read the lyrics i notice that it said " I dont care about the ring you wear, because if nobody know then they wont care." I then realized that it was about a married woman cheating on her husband with this person and how shes feeling guilty, but they both know that if they are meant to be together then she shouldn't care cause if it was just between them, then no one will know and there is no big deal about it, but in all reality they are both betraying someone. "Swim through your veins, like a fish in the sea," may sound like a drug reference, but for someone in an affair, the other person can be like an addiction, and you have to hide that "addiction." As for "I'm not the reason that you go astray," this is also explainable by an affair: women don't generally cheat because of sex, they cheat for emotional reasons, because of something wrong in their current relationship that they are trying to find elsewhere. The singer can't give her things, because the woman wouldn't be able to explain it to her husband.  He also states that he can't give her the world, but he can give her  his heart and love that is about it.
