Hey Jealousy

Hey jealousy

You can be my best friend

Whisper in my ear

Or you could be my lover

And a sweet nothingness, to

Hide behind the smoke screen

Glory in my lack of inhibition

Nibble at my soul.

Hey jealousy

You can knock at my door

Give me flowers and

Seduce me

Blind me and take me

Tell me I can have it all

Hey jealousy

You’re the beat in my ears

The taste in my mouth

You’re my director

Who hides behind the curtain

Hey jealousy

Why do you fill me up?

When I see her

The poison in my brain

The cogs in my heart that

Roll and fight-that’s you

Hey jealousy

Can you see what you’re doing?

You’re breaking me apart.

You’re holding my heart away from me

Hey jealousy

Maybe I don’t care anymore

Maybe I haven’t for a while.
