From the recording Ki 'a Lavaka
Lyrics
Jealousy… Eating me. Is this how, I should be?
Jealousy… State of mind or visceral? Can’t decide
Jealousy… Up to me. Tame the fire. Calm the sea.
Jealousy… Feel the burn. Or learn to deal with your desire
I never saw it coming
Didn’t think it was a part of loving
Hear them say it would be a disaster
Preaching from the pulpit like a pastor
Call it cultural imprinting
But it’s easier to label it as sinning
Though once you get beyond the ego
You realise we’re blinded more than we know
By this jealousy
Jealousy… Eating me. Is this how, I should be?
Jealousy… State of mind or visceral? Can’t decide
Jealousy… Up to me. Tame the fire. Calm the sea.
Jealousy… Feel the burn. Or learn to deal with your desire
Who knows how it’s ending?
But isn’t a discussion better than pretending?
It’s important to remember
Would be so many storms we’d have to weather
Like this jealousy
Jealousy… Eating me. Is this how, I should be?
Jealousy… State of mind or visceral? Can’t decide
Jealousy… Up to me. Tame the fire. Calm the sea.
Jealousy… Feel the burn. Or learn to deal with your desire
Your desire
Are we moving higher?
Or through a blackhole
Out of our control
Jealousy… Eating me. Is this how, I should be?
Jealousy… State of mind or visceral? Can’t decide
Jealousy… Up to me. Tame the fire. Calm the sea.
Jealousy… Feel the burn. Or learn to deal with your desire
