It's funny I know
But I'm disappointed in you
I thought you could read my mind
But I came home early
And saw that a drawer'd been opened
Looks like you've been reading my diary instead
How does it feel to realize
You're all alone behind your eyes?
It seems to me if you can't trust
You can't be trusted
Caught in a dream
Picking up astral signals
Some of them psychic, you better watch what you think
Happens to be that everybody else's dreams are Freudian clues
You better watch what you dream
You want to see the other side
What's going on behind the eyes
Still it seems if you can't trust
You can't be trusted
Didn't you know we're as close as we can be?
The sun's coming up
She's pulled all the blankets over
Curled in a ball
Like she's hiding from me and
That's when I know
She's gonna be pissed when she wakes up
For terrible things I did to her in her dreams
You want to see the other side
What's going on behind the eyes
Still it seems if you can't trust
You can't be trusted
Didn't you know we're as close as we can be?
Hello.
But I'm disappointed in you
I thought you could read my mind
But I came home early
And saw that a drawer'd been opened
Looks like you've been reading my diary instead
How does it feel to realize
You're all alone behind your eyes?
It seems to me if you can't trust
You can't be trusted
Caught in a dream
Picking up astral signals
Some of them psychic, you better watch what you think
Happens to be that everybody else's dreams are Freudian clues
You better watch what you dream
You want to see the other side
What's going on behind the eyes
Still it seems if you can't trust
You can't be trusted
Didn't you know we're as close as we can be?
The sun's coming up
She's pulled all the blankets over
Curled in a ball
Like she's hiding from me and
That's when I know
She's gonna be pissed when she wakes up
For terrible things I did to her in her dreams
You want to see the other side
What's going on behind the eyes
Still it seems if you can't trust
You can't be trusted
Didn't you know we're as close as we can be?
Hello.

He's portraying here that when you enter a relationship with somebody, you need to trust the other person, because there's no other way to be closer than you already are.
Basically, they can't trust to an extreme and that makes them impossible to trust.
She claims to read minds, talks about astral signals, and even does that dream interpreting crap - (eg You're dreaming of a cow, it means you miss your mother in law)
"You wanna see the other side" maybe she wants to read peoples' minds and stuff like that coz she doesn't trust people or is paranoid? "How does it feel to realise you're all alone behind your eyes?" Kinda like 'sorry dear, but there are no dead people giving you clues'.
It mostly seems to fit to me. also the fact that she dreams of him doing terrible things to her and her getting really scared about it supports the paranoia hypothesy.
"How does it feel to realize you're all alone behind your eyes?"
It feels sucky, that's how it feels. like likethecomet said, you feel relievedf to find someone who loves you and knows you and trusts you, but then you find out that they doubt everything you do, and don't trust you at all.
It sucks.
That's what it says to me, at least.
