Cellophane and glass


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

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 

The lyrics CELLOPHANE AND GLASS of STEEL TRAIN is also present in the album Twilight tales from the prairies on the sun (2005)

Biografia

Gli Steel Train sono stati una band indie rock americana formatasi a New York nel 1999, guidata dal talentuoso Jack Antonoff. Antonoff, noto per la sua carriera successiva come produttore e musicista solista, ha fondato il gruppo insieme ad altri membri provenienti da diverse esperienze musicali. Gli Steel Train hanno raggiunto una certa popolarità negli anni 2000 grazie al loro sound caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili, testi introspettivi e un'energia live contagiosa. Il loro album di debutto, "The Logic of the Universe", pubblicato nel 2003, ha segnato l'inizio della loro ascesa. Tra i brani più rappresentativi del gruppo ricordiamo "I Want to Be Your Boyfriend", "You Can't Stop Me" e "The Last Time". Dopo diversi anni di attività, gli Steel Train si sono sciolti nel 2010, lasciando un segno indelebile nella scena indie rock americana. Jack Antonoff ha continuato la sua carriera musicale con successo, collaborando con artisti come Lana Del Rey, Lorde e Taylor Swift.
