Slow Distraction

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
They got their wide screen TV on a handheld
Leaving all your luck with baby Jesus on a candle
Giving up your dreams, you carry more than you can handle
It's more than you can handle

[Chorus]
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 wanna know, yeah, I don't wanna 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, no, I can't let it show

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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 wanna know, yeah, I don't wanna 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, no, I can't let it show

[Bridge]
Give me slow distraction
Got no words to say
All the world's on fire
I can't look away

[Pre-Chorus]
They got their wide screen TV on a handheld
Leaving all your luck with baby Jesus on a candle
Giving up your dreams, you carry more than you can handle
It's more than you can handle

[Chorus]
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 wanna know, yeah, I don't wanna 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, no, I can't let it show

[Outro]
Read between the lines tonight
Waiting on a sign tonight
