This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
And if I had my way,
I would run to the rescue.
It never works that way,
When you call a bluff.
Oh, all the fools rush in.
It's a battle to surround you.
And all the fools want in,
But I'm not giving up.
I don't wanna let you go,
But I can't stand to watch this.
I don't wanna let you know,
But you can read my mind.
I feel it all the time,
Felt it all around you.
You had me under spell right from the start.
I don't have a telepathic heart.
Telepathic.
Blind, I fall into the line,
That's waiting just to get you.
But I don't ever know just what we are,
I don't have a telepathic heart.
Telepathic.
Look inside my brain.
You'd know what I want before I tell you.
Give me the words to say to make it enough.
Don't want your star-crossed fate,
You are the sun, I am the full moon.
Don't leave me lost in vain,
I can be what you want.
I don't wanna let you go,
But I can't stand to watch this.
I don't wanna let you know,
But you can read my mind.
I feel it all the time,
Felt it all around you.
You had me under spell right from the start.
I don't have a telepathic heart.
Telepathic.
Blind, I fall into the line,
That's waiting just to get you.
But I don't ever know just what we are,
I don't have a telepathic heart.
Telepathic.
Telepathic.
Telepathic.
And you always turn away,
Back to the start where I break through.
You can run, you can run away.
I will wait in the dark for you.
Should've never fell this way,
Cause you're the sun and I'm just the moon.
I'm in the dark until you light the way,
Cause I'm see through...
You can read my mind.
I feel it all the time,
Felt it all around you.
You had me under spell right from the start.
I don't have a telepathic heart.
Telepathic.
Blind, I fall into the line,
That's waiting just to get you.
But I don't ever know just what we are,
I don't have a telepathic heart.
Telepathic.
Telepathic.
Telepathic.
I would run to the rescue.
It never works that way,
When you call a bluff.
Oh, all the fools rush in.
It's a battle to surround you.
And all the fools want in,
But I'm not giving up.
I don't wanna let you go,
But I can't stand to watch this.
I don't wanna let you know,
But you can read my mind.
I feel it all the time,
Felt it all around you.
You had me under spell right from the start.
I don't have a telepathic heart.
Telepathic.
Blind, I fall into the line,
That's waiting just to get you.
But I don't ever know just what we are,
I don't have a telepathic heart.
Telepathic.
Look inside my brain.
You'd know what I want before I tell you.
Give me the words to say to make it enough.
Don't want your star-crossed fate,
You are the sun, I am the full moon.

I don't wanna let you go,
But I can't stand to watch this.
I don't wanna let you know,

Telepathic.
Telepathic.
Telepathic.
