[Verse 1]
I thought I had left it behind
In another fucking time
When boys were boys, girls were girls
And faces were hard to find

[Chorus]
It followed me
It followed me
It followed me
It followed me

[Verse 2]
All the stupid thinking
The stupid people thought
The rules that we lived by
The friends that we bought

The asshole with a strong arm
In the shape of floating friends
The young ladies and their secrets
In the soap that never ends

[Chorus]
It followed me
It followed me
It followed me
It followed me
[Verse 3]
You know, I thought I'd outrun it
When I crossed the tracks
I thought I had gotten away
But it tapped me on the back

[Chorus]
It followed me
It followed me
It followed me
It followed me
