[Verse 1]

You’re cellophane

You think that you got it wrapped up

With your brutal suffocating ways

Like cellophane

Spreading yourself too thin

To begin to feel anything

[Chorus]

Oh all the fear, all the lies

What you think you need to survive

The crisis is moving in, over and over the same thing

From X to Y to Z comply

Heartache barely keeps you alive

The crisis is coming, over and over the same thing

(Alibis alibis)

[Verse 2]

Like alibis

Smiling like a sunbeam

Furious as creeping fire and grazing ice

And your alibis

Tongue-tied smoke and mirrors

Left stuttering in bleach and lights

(Cellophane)

[Chorus]

Oh all the fear, all the lies

What you think you need to survive

The crisis is moving in, over and over the same thing

From X to Y to Z comply

Heartache barely keeps you alive

The crisis is coming, over and over the same thing

[Bridge]

Did you find that you’re lost?

Oh let us fall down through the cracks in the pavement

If you find that you’re lost

Nothing, nothing is safer

Did you find that you’re lost?

The cracks are the same whether sidewalk or pavement

Who’s keeping score?

Nothing is sacred, nothing is sacred

[Pre-Chorus]

You’re like cellophane

You think that you got it wrapped up

With your brutal suffocating ways

[Chorus]

Oh all the fear, all the lies

What you think you need to survive

The crisis is moving in, over and over the same thing

From X to Y to Z comply

Heartache barely keeps you alive

The crisis is coming, over and over the same thing

[Pre-Chorus]

You’re like cellophane

You think that you got it wrapped up

With your brutal suffocating ways
