Description
A driving, catchy alternative song about realizing the end of a relationship before its there. It's about that stubborn state of denial everyone gets to where they won't back down even though that's all that's left. "Headline" carries quite a big message for a song with this many hooks.
Lyrics
Check your pulse, your vital signs Because it's visible what is on your mind Though it hurts much worse to feel it than to hear Grab my keys, I'm walking out And subconsciously I lock the house So that it's twice as hard for you to disappear. But I can read you like a headline, bold and dark Panic scripting grips my heart like a newsflash Leaves me blind, I lose my sight then I lose my mind for you. Give you space, to clear your head When I walk in your clothes are boxed on the bed I'm in denial like you're deciding what to wear Come on, give it a try, change your mind But I stray from my point with every line Like the teleprompter fades to black while I'm still on the air And I can read you like a headline, bold and dark Panic scripting grips my heart like a newsflash Leaves my blind, I lose my sight then I lose my mind for you Maybe human interest doesn't suit me Maybe I am much to sick for health Maybe I'm too quick to see the bad things and I should keep opinions to myself. But were the roles reversed it would be much worse I would never even hesitate to leave you first Content to write it down in the past tense Bullet-pointed, modified, and vacuous.
