I’m just an ordinary guy, living my life

Work from dawn till dusk, hustle to survive

All I want is peace and quiet, in my simple space

But every time I turn around, I feel a stranger's gaze, hey

I always feel like someone's in my rearview

And I can’t escape the view

Oh, oh, oh, I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

Tell me, is this really true?

When I lock my door at night

I double-check the light

People knock and call me up, they never get the vibe

Am I just being paranoid or is there someone outside?

When I’m lying in my bed, I feel uneasy, staring at the ceiling

I try to drift away, but I know someone’s revealing

They say I’m crazy, maybe a little off

But those shadows in the corner just don’t make me soft

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

And I can’t escape the view

Oh, oh, oh, I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

Who’s pulling the strings on me?

[Who’s following me] Are the neighbors looking through the blinds?

[Who’s following] Could it be the postman outside my door?

[Tell me who’s lurking] I can’t take it anymore, oh, what a mess

I wonder who’s watching me now [Who] the big ol’ IRS

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

And I can’t escape the view

Oh, oh, oh, I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

Tell me, is it all just a dream?

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview, ee, hee, hee

And I can’t escape the view

Oh, oh, oh, I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

Who’s pulling the strings on me?

[Who’s following me]

Oh, oh, oh

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview [Who’s pulling the strings?]

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview, ooh

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview [Who’s watching me]

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview, ooh

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview [Who’s pulling the strings?]

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

And I can’t enjoy my peace

Whoa, oh, oh, I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

Will they let me breathe?

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

Can I have my space, please?

Whoa, oh, oh, I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

Who’s watching me? [Who’s following me?]

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview, ee, hee

Oh, oh, oh, I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

Stop pulling these strings on me [Who’s pulling the strings?]

I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

Why won’t they leave me alone?

Oh, oh, oh, I always feel like someone’s in my rearview

I can’t shake this feeling, oh!
