its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
You said your peace
It's killing me
I can't believe
It's over
Your not the enemy
But underneath
You don't agree
Take comfort that
It's over, over
See you're hands tight
You feel shy
Believe I'm on your side
Now and forever, oh
Jealousy
Won't get you anything that you've lost
Jealousy
It will never be what it was
Jealousy
Well I'm afraid of what I've become
Jealousy
It feels like everything has come undone
Your not the enemy
But underneath
You don't agree
Take comfort that
It's over, oh over
There's an emergency
A dire need
For the remedy
Take comfort that
It's over, oh over
Because jealousy
Won't get you anything that you've lost
Jealousy
Well it will never be what it was
Jealousy
Well I'm afraid of what I've become
Jealousy
It feels like everything has come undone
[x2]
No matter what the price
They can't take me
No matter they won't
No matter what the price
They can't take me
It's killing me
I can't believe
It's over
Your not the enemy
But underneath
You don't agree
Take comfort that
It's over, over
See you're hands tight
You feel shy
Believe I'm on your side
Now and forever, oh
Jealousy
Won't get you anything that you've lost
Jealousy
It will never be what it was
Jealousy
Well I'm afraid of what I've become
Jealousy
It feels like everything has come undone
Your not the enemy
But underneath
You don't agree
Take comfort that
It's over, oh over
There's an emergency
A dire need
For the remedy
Take comfort that
It's over, oh over
Because jealousy
Won't get you anything that you've lost
Jealousy
Well it will never be what it was
Jealousy
Well I'm afraid of what I've become
Jealousy
It feels like everything has come undone
[x2]
No matter what the price
They can't take me
No matter they won't
No matter what the price
They can't take me

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
the meaning is pretty obvious, right?
