Jealous

 I see you walking with her. 
 The quiet laughter - I wonder. 
 Sometimes I feel invisible,
 No longer feeling invincible.  

 It’s like your attention is all on her. 
 It’s like your focus is never leaving her. 
 Sometimes you don’t know I’m alive
 Because you’re busy staring at her eyes.  

 I feel so alone 
 With nowhere to go. 
 I lost my brother
 When they’re alone. 
 Sometimes I wonder
 If he’ll be back
 Since he’s gone
 All night long.  

 But now I think I’m starting to get jealous
 Because he’s spending all his time with her. 
 I feel like I no longer matter at all
 Because he’s spending all his time with her.  

 I see you walking with her. 
 The quiet laughter - I wonder. 
 Sometimes I feel invisible,
 No longer feeling invincible.  

 It’s like your attention is all on her. 
 It’s like your focus is never leaving her. 
 You still forget that I’m alive
 Because you’re busy staring at her eyes.  

 I feel so alone 
 With nowhere to go. 
 I lost my brother
 When they’re alone. 
 Sometimes I wonder
 If he’ll be back
 Since he’s gone
 All night long.  

 But now I think I’m starting to get jealous
 Because he’s spending all his time with her. 
 I feel like I no longer matter at all
 Because he’s spending all his time with her.
 
 Jealous...
 Jealous...
 Jealous...
 Jealous... 

 Jealous...
 Jealous...
 Jealous...
 Jealous... 

 But now I think I’m starting to get jealous
 Because he’s spending all his time with her. 
 I feel like I no longer matter at all
 Because he’s spending all his time with her. 
 But now I think I’m starting to get jealous
 Because he’s never at home. 
 I feel like I have disappeared 
 Because he’s never at home.  

 But now I think I’m starting to get jealous
 Because he’s spending all his time with her. 
 I think that I have vanished from the world
 Because he’s never at home.
