Drunken Jealousy

When I see you with she
        or anybody
 I get in this trance
           anger
           loneliness
 It reminds me that nothing is consistent
        at least in my life 
          My thoughts more open
         my heart more swollen
          For you i'm uncontrollable
              Except being drunk is much better
               Cause the next day I still remember
                    I still hurt
                  I can't drown 
                      I can't prevent
                         I can't pretend
                      My eyes so green 
                     Your can download music from me
                             like lime wire
                              I'm saying things I don't mean
                                My body starts to perspire
                                        I just feel weak
                                          helpless to stop 
                                               She 
                                           or anybody 
                                        from taking my spot
