    “I don’t shine if you don’t shine” that lyric came to me this week as I was struggling with my upcoming graduation with a masters. My daughter who loved The Killers passed away a year and a half ago at 26. I don’t want all this attention because she didn’t get much fanfare for her pandemic graduation. But I feel like I got her permission with this song. Love you Lin - I’ll shine so you can shine

      @riaunderwater 8 년 전

      +mrsuns10 I guess it's up to interpretation. When you listen to the lyrics "You say you want to move on, you say I'm falling behind" and "I got the green light, I got a little fight, I'm gonna turn this thing around", it sounds very much like coming to terms that a relationship is breaking. Maybe it's not necessarily a breakup song, but it could be interpreted as a post fight song. I dunno. It's just gorgeous.

    • @riaunderwater
      @riaunderwater 8 년 전 +3

      +ellzedd41 I can definitely see that point of view! Like I said, I totally see it both ways. I can see how it is the end of the road- a couple that had their ups and downs and despite being over, he's reminiscing and giving ode to the relationship. Maybe he's replaying the high points of the relationship, when it ended and what he should have said/done in that moment. However, what you said is very strong. Like I said, I can see it being up to interpretation. That's the beautiful thing about Brandon Flower's songwriting- it makes you feel things you didn't know were capable of being felt by using a complexly beautiful set of words.

    You say I'm fallin' behind
    Can you read my mind?
    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 if you don't mind
    'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine

    The drop dead dream, the Chosen One
    A southern drawl, a world unseen
    A city wall and a trampoline
    Oh well, I don't mind if you don't mind
    'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
    Before you jump
    Tell me what you find
    Can you read my mind?
    Slippin' 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"

    What a nostalgic song. It's about two people who were in deep love-but one of them has grown apart through ambition and high city success. Whilst the other struggles to motivate himself out of a rut. Whist she moves on. In reflection ,he will probably always see her as the 'one' when he's old.

    LYRICS:
    On the corner of Main Street
    Just tryna keep it in line
    You say you wanna move on and
    You say I'm fallin' 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 if 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
    Waitin' on some sign
    I pull up to the front of your driveway
    With magic soakin' 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, a world unseen
    A city wall and a trampoline
    Oh well, I don't mind if you don't mind
    'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
    Before you jump
    Tell me what you find
    Can you read my mind?
    Slippin' 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
    Can you read my mind?

  • @christophermcgehee6329

    The song “Read My Mind” by The Killers explores themes of longing, introspection, and the desire for connection. The lyrics depict a sense of restlessness and a yearning for something more than the current circumstances.
    The protagonist seems to be stuck in a small town (“two-star town”) and feels like they’re falling behind while others are moving on. They express a desire for change and a determination to break free from their current situation (“I never really gave up on breakin’ out of this two-star town”).
    Throughout the song, there’s a plea for understanding and connection, as well as a sense of vulnerability. Lines like “Can you read my mind?” and “Before you go, can you read my mind?” suggest a longing for someone to truly understand them and their feelings.
    The references to “the good old days,” “the restless heart,” and “the Promised Land” evoke nostalgia and a sense of longing for a better, more fulfilling life. The mention of a “teenage queen,” “loaded gun,” and “drop dead dream” suggests a sense of danger and excitement associated with youth and ambition.
    The chorus, “Oh well, I don’t mind if you don’t mind / ‘Cause I don’t shine if you don’t shine,” underscores the importance of mutual support and understanding in relationships.
    Overall, “Read My Mind” explores themes of longing, nostalgia, and the search for meaning and connection in life. It’s a song that speaks to the universal human experience of yearning for something more, whether it’s personal fulfillment, understanding, or companionship.

    This song gets better everytime that I listen to it. The lyric "Slippin' 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.." puts me in a different place.

    Wow. Never thought Rose would cover this song. This specific song that I've had on my super... super old ipod shuffle way backkkk then. She really knows how to pick em!

    "I pull up to the front of your driveway with magic soaking my spine." I feel like anyone familiar with dating the girl of their dreams can relate to this line. I'll never forget the commute to visit my girlfriend when she went to college. Every car ride I took to visit I was fueled by the power of love and the killers. The Killers will always make my heart swell.

    This song will always hold a special place in My heart. One of those rare songs I remember hearing the first time despite nothing special really happening. I was on my lunch break at the time, sitting in my brother's truck listening to the radio. Hearing this song is like a time machine to that day
