lyrics

Cellophane

Peeled back the layers and shower you my heart,
Rearrange my puzzle and made you a part
I loved you, and you loved me too

Told me things you’d buried deep
Made promises you swore you’d keep
I believed you, but I never should have trusted you

And now my heart’s wrapped up in cellophane
And I take these drugs cause I don’t want to feel the pain
Stops the bleeding but still you can see, the wound through the plastic the blade
dug in deep
So now my heart’s wrapped up in cellophane

Got all messed up but it wasn’t too deep,
I begged you to stay, but you wanted to leave
All our hopes and dreams, you threw them all away

Now I sing these songs but it isn’t the same
I run from my fears into fire and flame
Still holding, on a chance you’ll change

Now I found my voice rising out of the ash
No more fears tie me down to the past
I’m letting go, I’m letting go

Fulfilled my dreams with songs of my own
Now moving on, I’ve got the strength to grow
Tho the wounds don’t show, I need you to know

And now my heart’s wrapped up in cellophane
And I take these drugs cause I don’t want to feel the pain
Stops the bleeding but still you can see, the wound through the plastic the blade
dug in deep
So now my heart’s wrapped up in cellophane
