"Cellophane And Glass" lyrics - STEEL TRAIN

And I'd rather watch a sunset
Through cellophane and glass
Then ask you why we fly
So why you gotta rock the boat?
Ain't it time for you to choke?
My love
On your epiphany
So keep one eye open
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
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'll never fix our love
No no

I know that it's time
To give it all up
When it all 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
But beauty is my light

So keep one eye open
Keep that eye open
Keep them eyes open
'Cause what you see ain't what you
It ain't what you got
