Jealous Type
Navigating Love's Shadows: Jealousy and Longing in 'Jealous Type'
Lyrics
Wish I wasn't the jealous type
Expressing a desire not to be inclined towards jealousy.
But I guess I am
Admitting the presence of jealousy despite the wish to the contrary.
Wish you didn't have to talk to no one else
Expressing a desire for exclusive communication with the person.
But I guess you do
Accepting the reality that the person interacts with others.
And it's not like I wanna be yours
Stating a lack of desire to possess the person but wanting proximity.
Just wanna be near you
Desiring closeness without necessarily seeking a committed relationship.
There are worse places to be
Acknowledging that being near the person is preferable despite challenges.
There are worse places to be
Reiterating the acceptance of a less-than-ideal situation.
Wish I didn't have to see you with anyone else
Expressing discomfort witnessing the person with others.
But I always do
Acknowledging the inevitability of observing the person with someone else.
Don't want to have to share you
Not wanting to share the person with others.
And you don't even know
Noting that the person is unaware of these feelings.
And it's not like I wanna be yours
Reiterating the desire for closeness without possession.
Just wanna be near you
Expressing a wish to be in proximity to the person.
There are worse places to be
Highlighting that despite challenges, there are worse situations to be in.
There are worse places to be
Reiterating the perspective that the current situation is not the worst.
I'm fine until I'm not
Indicating a contrast between feeling fine and moments of unease.
