Death Cab For Cutie - Jealousy Rides With Me lyrics

Jealousy rides with me

such a faithful companion no one could be

and he sits on my shoulder

and whispers the things that make me so bitter its sick

jealousy rides with me

in wake or in slumber I can't get relief

from the pictures he paints of the passion in heat

and though I try I can't stop listening

and I've tried bribery, but to no effect

cause there's no amount of money that would get him to split

as long as I'm living and we're not together

I'll be chained to this beast with no chance of severance 'cause

jealousy rides with me

such a faithful companion no one could be

for a journey that leads to the outskirts of time

but don't worry about me, I'll be fine

it beats being lonely, I'll be fine.
