Holy unintelligible lyrics...
 
 
You read the news
Turns you inside out
And everybody feels the same as you
In uncertain times, the uncertain rules apply
Caught in the blind spot of real and _______ (love?)
Can you feel real like you are/were
Can you feel me like the way I feel ?????
And the biggest chance that we can take
Is open arms and wide awake
Hold me now, so we can feel alive tonight

I thought it was "fear and love."
At least, that's what I put in my sig everywhere Tongue
 
I think it's one of the prettiest things they've written in ages.  :love:

Your guess is as good as mine... I usually don't have any problems deciphering Goo lyrics, but this one isn't very clear to me.

I had a hard time, too. I didn't even try the chorus, so kudos to you.
*shrug* Maybe in a few weeks, the lyrics will be up on the main site...Uhm...If they still do that. I dunno, I haven't poked around the main site since before LLI came out Tongue
 
 
EDIT: Okay, I gave it another good listen, and this is what I came up with (basically the same as your's, but not)
 
 
You read the news
Turns you inside out
And everybody feels the same as you
 
In uncertain times
The uncertain rules apply

 
Here's where it gets tricky. The next bit is definitely "Caught in the blind spot of.." but those last three words are a little weird. In the final word, you can here quite clearly a V sound at the end, which leads me to believe it's "love". I think it would make the most sense for "fear" to be paired with love, but I don't hear an F sound at the beginning of the first word. It sounds, actually, like "here", but "here and love" sounds weird. I keep thinking it's gonna be "here and now" but then I hear that V. On the other hand, I hardly hear an L sound at the beginning of the word, which means it could be "of", but that makes even less sense.
I've checked rhymezone, and the only thing that makes any sense to me is "fear and love", so that's what we'll go with.
 
Caught in the blind spot of fear and love
 
Can you feel
Real like you were?
Can you feel alive
The way I feel {you now?}{your night}?
 
And the biggest chance that we can take
Is open arms and wide awake
Hold me now
{So we can feel alive?}
{'Til we can feel the love?}
Tonight

 
Not much better, but it's another option

AWESOME SONG!!
 
Anyway, here are the lyrics I got from listening to it.

and everybody feels the same as you
 
in uncertain times
the uncertain rules apply
caught in the blind spot of fear and love
 
can you feel, real like you are
and can you feel your life
the way i feel your life
 
and the biggest chance that we can take
is open arms and wide awake
hold me now, so we can feel alive, tonight

This is exactly how I heard it too. It didn't sound mumbled to me at all. I could understand the lyrics perfectly.
 
What a great song! I love the piano mixed with the rockin' chorus. It's so exciting to have new Goo!!!!!

It's also nice to hear a fresh sound, combining different elements from previous songs by them that I like.
 
The beginning to me has a certain feeling to when I heard Truth is a Whisper for the first time, with the chorus being a good strong rock section, like Dizzy, Big Machine, Stay With You, hmmm, wouldn't be surprised if this was the first track off of the new album, lol.  Their first tracks always seem to follow a certain tone.  The first track on their cds usually get you set up and pumped for the rest of the album.

Yeah, I think this is pretty much right, except I think it might be
