Don't Follow Lyrics

I didn't know that you smoked

You joked you'd got yourself into cocaine

It was a catchy refrain

I played again and again in my brain

But situations make plain

How far apart we had grown since eighth grade

When you'd remind me my body had not yet changed

And I was probably gay

You could be meaner than snake shit

And I'd relinquish the piss

Each time you'd come to reclaim it

No need to get one's undies in a twist

Unball those fists

Don't give me that face

Don't fuckin follow me

You're way too smart for that

My daddy called you a dirtball

And I had nothing to say

Just stood there dead in the doorway

My mouth most likely agape

I couldn't blame him for caring

Scared for mistakes I might make

Things I might say to authorities

Things I might put in my veins like you did that day

Don't fuckin follow me

We're not even friends

Go back to your dad and tell him that

I'm doing just fine

I've got my life

And I'll try to get by

Without his guidance
