lyrics
You hide your feelings deep inside
With some misguided sense of pride
Then you expect me to read you like an open book
Please don't flog me if I have to take a second look
Though words you're keeping deep inside
I've turned to that page you know you can't hide
Though I can't read you like an open book
I got to that part don't need to take a second look
It feels like the heat of the day
is wearing me thin, wearing me thin
It seems like the things
you don't say are taking me in, taking me in
It feels like the heat of the night
is wearing me thin, wearing me thin
It seems like the way you just might
is reeling me in, reeling me in
It should be easy but I just can't tell
In the final pages am I under your spell?
You think you read me chapter and verse
No spoiler alert but you know it's gonna get worse
I get the feeling the mystery's solved
Did the killer come clean will they be absolved
No one survives it, that much is true
Cover to covered, the feeling is blue
With some misguided sense of pride
Then you expect me to read you like an open book
Please don't flog me if I have to take a second look
Though words you're keeping deep inside
I've turned to that page you know you can't hide
Though I can't read you like an open book
I got to that part don't need to take a second look
It feels like the heat of the day
is wearing me thin, wearing me thin
It seems like the things
you don't say are taking me in, taking me in
It feels like the heat of the night
is wearing me thin, wearing me thin
It seems like the way you just might
is reeling me in, reeling me in
It should be easy but I just can't tell
In the final pages am I under your spell?
You think you read me chapter and verse
No spoiler alert but you know it's gonna get worse
I get the feeling the mystery's solved
Did the killer come clean will they be absolved
No one survives it, that much is true
Cover to covered, the feeling is blue
