    THE KILLERS LYRICS

    “Read My Mind”

    On the corner of main street
    Just tryin’ to keep it in line
    You say you wanna move on and
    You say I’m falling behind

    Can you read my mind?
    Can you read my mind?

    I never really gave up on
    Breakin’ out of this two-star town
    I got the green light
    I got a little fight
    I’m gonna turn this thing around

    Can you read my mind?
    Can you read my mind?

    The good old days, the honest man;
    The restless heart, the Promised Land
    A subtle kiss that no one sees;
    A broken wrist and a big trapeze

    Oh well I don’t mind, if you don’t mind
    ‘Cause I don’t shine if you don’t shine
    Before you go, can you read my mind?

    It’s funny how you just break down
    Waitin’ on some sign
    I pull up to the front of your driveway
    With magic soakin’ my spine

    Can you read my mind?
    Can you read my mind?

    The teenage queen, the loaded gun;
    The drop dead dream, the Chosen One
    A southern drawl, a world unseen;
    A city wall and a trampoline

    Oh well I don’t mind, if you don’t mind
    ‘Cause I don’t shine if you don’t shine
    Before you jump
    Tell me what you find when you read my mind

    Slippin’ in my faith until I fall
    You never returned that call
    Woman, open the door, don’t let it sting
    I wanna breathe that fire again

    She said I don’t mind, if you don’t mind
    ‘Cause I don’t shine if you don’t shine

    Put your back on me
    Put your back on me
    Put your back on me

    The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun
    When you read my mind

    Angry Mob

    I can prove anything
    I’ll make you admit again and again
    I can prove anything
    The way that it’s read again and again

    And its only cos you came here with your brothers too
    If you came here on your own you’d be dead
    Its only cos you follow what the others do
    Its no excuse to say your easily lead

    You can choose anything
    You choose to lose again and again
    You could do anything
    Why should you do anything again

    And its only cos you came here with your brothers too
    If you came here on your own you’d be dead
    Winding yourself up until your turning blue
    Repeating everything that you’ve read

    And here we go with the letter
    Well can you fix it for me
    Cos we need entertainment
    To keep us all off the streets

    So tonight you’ll sleep softly in your bed

    You can try anything
    And no-one would know apart from you and me
    You can stop anything
    It’s starts with just one and turns to two then three

    Its only cos you came here with your brothers too
    If you came here on your own you’d be dead
    Raise a glass or two
    You raise a fist or two
    Get a shopping basket wrapped round your head

    So here we go with the letter
    Oh can you fix it for me
    24 hour drinking
    To keep us all off the streets

    So tonight you’ll sleep softly in your bed

    We are the angry mob
    We read the papers everyday day
    We like who like
    We hate who we hate
    But we’re also easily swayed

    Bother by Stone Sour

    Wish I was too dead to cry
    My self-affliction fades
    Stones to throw at my creator
    Masochists to which I cater

    (Chorus)

    You don’t need to bother
    I don’t need to be
    I’ll keep slipping farther
    But once I hold on
    I won’t let go till it bleeds

    Wish I was too dead to care
    If indeed I cared at all
    Never had a voice to protest
    So you fed me shit to digest
    I wish I had a reason
    My flaws are open season
    For this I gave up trying
    One good turn deserves my dying

    (Chorus)

    Wish I’d died, instead of lived
    A zombie hides my face
    Shell forgotten with its memories
    Diaries left, with cryptic entries

    (Chorus)

    You don’t need to bother
    I don’t need to be
    I’ll keep slipping farther
    But once I hold on
    I’ll never live down my deceit

    I love through glass by stone sour…. beautiful song.

    oh.. I guess I could post the lyrics….

    I’m looking at you through the glass
    Don’t know how much time has passed
    Oh God it feels like forever
    But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
    Sitting all alone inside your head

    [Cause I’m looking at you through the glass
    Don’t know how much time has passed
    All I know is that it feels like forever
    No one ever tells you that forever feels like home
    Sitting all alone inside your head ]

    How do you feel? That is the question
    But I forget you don’t expect an easy answer
    When something like a soul becomes initialized
    And folded up like paper dolls and little notes
    You can’t expect a bit of hope
    So while you’re outside looking in
    Describing what you see
    Remember what you’re staring at is me

    ‘Cause I’m looking at you through the glass
    Don’t know how much time has passed
    All I know is that it feels like forever
    but No one ever tells you that forever feels like home
    Sitting all alone inside your head

    How much is real?
    So much to question
    An epidemic of the mannequins
    contaminating everything
    We thought came from the heart
    But never did right from the start
    Just listen to the noises
    (Null and void instead of voices)
    Before you tell yourself
    It’s just a different scene
    Remember it’s just different from what you’ve seen

    I’m looking at you through the glass
    Don’t know how much time has passed
    And all I know is that it feels like forever
    But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
    Sitting all alone inside your head

    ‘Cause I’m looking at you through the glass
    Don’t know how much time has passed
    And all I know is that it feels like forever
    But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
    Sitting all alone inside your head

    And it’s the stars
    The stars that shine for you
    And it’s the stars
    The stars that lie to you, yeah ah
    And it’s the stars
    The stars that shine for you
    And it’s the stars
    The stars that lie to you, yeah ah

    I’m looking at you through the glass
    Don’t know how much time has passed
    Oh God it feels like forever
    But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
    Sitting all alone inside your head

    ‘Cause I’m looking at you through the glass
    Don’t know how much time has passed
    All I know is that it feels like forever
    But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
    Sitting all alone inside your head

    And it’s the stars
    The stars that shine for you, yeah ah
    And it’s the stars
    The stars that lie to you, yeah ah
    And it’s the stars
    The stars that shine for you, yeah ah
    And its’s the stars
    The stars that lie to you, yeah yeah

    Oh when the stars
    Oh when the stars they lie.

    So while you’re outside looking in
    Describing what you see
    Remember what you’re staring at is me

    love that bit :)

    That’s my favourite from the current album. I think some of the lyrics in ’30/30-150′ – even if you don’t care much for the music which, fair enough, isn’t to everyone’s taste – are really good. I wouldn’t call it a classic or resonant though (it’s also a cop out cos there’s loads of lyrics to it and I don’t know if I have the patience!)

    You wanna live in a one sided world
    Be prepared for a whole world of hurt
    Now with the grand facade
    I don’t want to be an angel
    I just want to be GOD!

    I have the album, but haven’t listened to it that much recently. I will have to have another listen to that track.

    If it wasn’t for ‘Through Glass’ that’d be my favourite track. But people are missing out on some good songs just cos they don’t like the music and that’s a shame.

    Erm… I have to say though, that the whole point of songs is the combination of lyrics and music. If you don’t like the music you are unlikely to bother to listen to the lyrics.

    and why did i get a scroll bar for that little quote? That looks bloody silly. I can understand using scroll bars for quoting huge amounts, but for that piddly little bit?

    Get it together PB/Martin!
