Jealousy, bring the music back to me

Dear jealousy

You know every part of me

Hiding where no one can see

I want you to leave

Dear jealousy

Why you smiling creepily?

Your fingertips keep holding on

But your tricks won't work on me

Oh baby, I'm jealous, I'm jealous, I'm jealous of us

I'm jealous of everything that I know we could be

But never really seems enough

I'm jealous, I'm jealous of everyone

Jealous of the man I used to be, and the man I could become

I'm jealous of your face, of your lips, of your eyes

Jealous of your house and the car you drive

Jealous of your truth and I'm jealous of lies

I'm jealous (dear jealousy)

Jealous of the ground beneath my feet

Jealous of your mouth and the air we breathe

Jealous of the way that you look at me

I'm jealous

It's coming out to get us, get us

You better run away while it let us

'Cause like it or not

Everyday we get a little better at jealousy

We got one thing in common, amen

Only problem is that it's wrong

And every single person, even you, even me

Is jealousy

Dear jealousy

When did you move in with me?

This bed wasn't made for three

It's time for you to leave

Oh baby, I'm jealous, I'm jealous, I'm jealous of us

I'm jealous of everything that I know we could be

But never really seems enough

I'm jealous, I'm jealous of everyone

Jealous of the man I used to be, and the man I could become

I'm jealous of your face, of your lips, of your eyes

Jealous of your house and the car you drive

Jealous of your truth and I'm jealous of lies

I'm jealous (dear jealousy)

Jealous of the ground beneath my feet

Jealous of your mouth and the air we breathe

Jealous of the way that you look at me

I'm jealous

It's coming out to get us, get us

You better run away while it let us

'Cause like it or not

Everyday we get a little better at jealousy

We got one thing in common, amen

Only problem is it's wrong

And every single person, even you, even me

Is jealousy

Jealousy

Bring the music back to me

I can't even write a song

If you're standing over me (dear jealousy)

Jealousy

I'll take the good time with the rough

I don't need to be the richest guy

No, enough is enough (dear jealousy)

Jealousy

Stop confusing me

I am sick of seeing everything

Deep in shades of gray (dear jealousy)

Jealousy

It took a while for me to see

I thought I was the one who's jealous

But you're jealous of me

(Dear jealousy)

It's coming out to get us, get us

You better run away while it let us

'Cause like it or not

Everyday we get a little better at jealousy

We got one thing in common, amen

Only problem is it's wrong

And every single person, even you, even me

Is jealousy

It's coming out to get us, get us

We better run away while it let us

'Cause like it or not

Everyday we get a little better at jealousy
