Steel Train - Cellophane And Glass lyrics

I would rather watch a sunset

Through cellophane and glass

Then ask just why we fly

So why you got to rock the boat

Ain't it time for you to choke

My love, on your epiphany

So keep one eye open

'Cause what you see ain't what you got

I sold my hate

To the man with a master plan

To run the world that I ran from

Last time I had left you

This time we are leaving truth

In a quest to lose it all

And fall with style

'Cause even these empty hands

Can hold the way to your promise land and my soul

Mind and body will render the crime

So why you gotta be so cruel

And use me like a tool

That will never fix our love

I know that it's time to give it all up

When it all is so corrupt

And I'm torn from child and lust

Time is sublime when pain's a rhyme

I know you thought them stars would align for you

Oh but beauty is my light
