Jealous
Jasmine V Lyrics

I don't know why I don't trust,
Admits to having trust issues, unsure of the reason behind the lack of trust.

I go crazy when you hang with her,
Gets overwhelmed with feelings of jealousy when partner spends time with a female friend.

I need a straitjacket for my mouth,
Wishes to control her jealous outbursts and keep them in check.

Can't let my J-E-A-L-O-U-S feelings keep coming out,
Understands that acting on jealousy is harmful to the relationship and wants to restrain from displaying it.

I might as well wrap him up in a bow,
Feels like smothering her partner with attention would prevent him from being attracted to other people.

All I'm doing is making him wanna go,
Acknowledges that her possessiveness could push her partner away.

I need you to help me calm my doubts,
Asks for support and reassurance from partner to overcome her insecurities.

Cause J-E-A-L-O-U-S feelings just bring us down
Believes that acting on jealousy would eventually lead to the downfall of the relationship.

Don't wanna be nag-nagging
Does not want to constantly bother or annoy her partner.

Don't wanna be drag-dragging you down,
Does not want to bring negativity to the relationship or be a burden on her partner.

Don't wanna be pull-pushing,
Does not want to manipulate or pressure her partner into doing things her way.

Look what I'm doing now.
Realizes that her behavior is currently not in line with what she desires.

So I'm the girl, I'm the jealous girl,
Admits to being the cause of the jealousy and is taking ownership of her actions.

J E A L O U S, boy, I don't know how you got me acting like this.
Expresses confusion and frustration towards her own behavior in response to her partner's actions.

How do I stop all these thoughts yeah
Desires to overcome her negative and intrusive thoughts about her partner and other women.

Then maybe our love ain't strong enough yeah
Worries that her jealousy and lack of trust could damage the relationship and wonders if their love can survive it.

I need to get a grip on myself
Recognizes that she needs to take control of her emotions for the sake of the relationship.

Before I push you right into the arms of someone Someone else
Recognizes that her jealousy and behavior could push her partner away and towards another person.

I'm that girl
Acknowledges that she is the source of the jealousy and is responsible for her actions.

Boy i don't know how you got me acting like this
Expresses confusion and frustration towards her partner's actions causing her to act out of character with her jealousy.

Oh
Expresses a feeling of despair or hopelessness.

Like this oh
Reinforces her feeling of being stuck in her current behavior and unsure how to change.
