Slow Distraction

Feels like the end of the world
I can't remember how I got here
Feels like I've crashed and I've burned
And there's a million people watching

They got their wide-screen TV on a handheld
Leaving all your luck to Baby Jesus on a candle
Giving up your dreams you carry more than you can handle
It's more than you can handle

I'm trying to read between the lines tonight
And I can't let it show
I've been waiting on a sign tonight
And I can't let it go
I don't want to know, yeah I don't want to know
I can't pretend that I do when I don't
I'm trying to read between the lines tonight
And I can't let it show, I can't let it show

Feels like the end of the world
I don't know what I should believe in
I tried to build up the nerve
But I keep falling off the deep end

They got their wide-screen TV on a handheld
Leaving all your luck with Virgin Mary on a candle
Spending all your money 'cause the paper doesn't matter
Yeah nothing really matters

I'm trying to read between the lines tonight
And I can't let it show
I've been waiting on a sign tonight
And I can't let it go
I don't want to know, yeah I don't want to know
I can't pretend that I do when I don't
I'm trying to read between the lines tonight
And I can't let it show, I can't let it show

Give me slow distraction
Got no words to say
All the world's on fire
I can't look away
They got their wide-screen TV on a handheld
Leaving all your luck to Baby Jesus on a candle
Giving up your dreams you carry more than you can handle
It's more than you can handle

I'm trying to read between the lines tonight
And I can't let it show
I've been waiting on a sign tonight
And I can't let it go
I don't want to know, yeah I don't want to know
I can't pretend that I do when I don't
I'm trying to read between the lines tonight
And I can't let it show, I can't let it show
(Read between the lines tonight, waiting on a sign tonight)
