[Intro]
   

[Verse]

And I've been 

           
doing just fin


e
              
Gotta gotta be

 
 down
         
Because I want

 it all
         
It started out

        
 with a kiss
              
How did it end

         
 up like this?
             
It was only a 


kiss,
              
it was only a 


kiss

[Verse]
         
Now I'm fallin

   
g asleep
              
And she's call

     
ing a cab
              
While he's hav

      
ing a smoke
              
And she's taki

     
ng a drag
         
Now they're go

       
ing to bed
              
And my stomach

And it's all i

n my head

[Pre-Chorus]

But she's touc

hing his

chest now,
              
He takes off h

   
er dress now.
         
Let me go.


            
'Cause I just 

      
can't look,
             
it's killing m

e,
           
And taking con

       
trol.

[Chorus]

Jealousy,
             
turning saints

 
 into the sea
             
Swimming throu

       
gh sick lullab

ies
             
Choking on you

But it's just
