It's late at night
I let the phone ring and ring
but no one picks up
I try to pretend
you must be asleep
I try to convince myself
but I know where you are
and I know you're with him

there ain't no secrecy
I read all your diaries
well I know he's more than a friend
hey, lovin ain't lyin and lyin aint lovin
You say "it's true, I swear to you"
but you're crossin' fingers again

It's later now
I stare at the ceiling fan
and I follow the blades
and I wish you were dead
It was a dream
the two of you together
but I'm not asleep
there's a pain in my head

I'm an unworthy student of philosophy
but arguments won't change a thing
a million proofs everyday
there's no doubt that you should stay
but you'll do what you're gonna do
and i know that you'll go away

[repeat 3x]
jealousy, it's what saved me
from believing the lies, from doubting the truth

jealousy, it's what saved me
from believing the lies
