Description
The beginning of the track features Bing Bellamy's heartbeat, recorded on Bellamy's iPhone.[1] According to Bellamy, the song will be about 'having a baby and that.' This was later confirmed in an NME article where the song was described as Matt's 'ode to fatherhood.'
According to a French magazine, Jeuxactu, the song starts quietly and crescendos into an almost dancefloor beat with big bass. They have also stated that the track is "out of the ordinary."[2]
The band collaborated with Nero on production to help create a more successful electronic mix of the song.
Matt's vocal range in the song spans from G2 to B♭4, the widest modal range displayed in an album song.
Information

Lyrics
When darkness falls
And surrounds you When you fall down When you’re scared And you’re lost Be brave I'm coming to hold you now When all your strength has gone And you feel wrong Like your life has slipped away
Follow me You can follow me And I will not desert you now When your fire’s died out No one’s there They have left you for dead
Follow me You can follow me I will keep you safe Follow me You can follow me I will protect you
I won’t let them hurt They're hurting you, no Ooh yeah When your heart is breaking
You can follow me You can follow me I will always keep you safe Follow me You can trust in me I will always protect you, my love Feel my love Feel my love.
