Read My Mind

The Killers

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, 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

Waiting on some sign

I pull up to the front of your driveway

With magic soaking 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, the world unseen

A city wall and a trampoline

Oh well, I don't mind, 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

Slipping in my faith until I fall

He 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, 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
