Alibis (IAMX Rework)
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
Oh all the fear
All the lies
What you think you need to survive
The heartbreaks 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
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
Oh all the fear
All the lies
What you think you need to survive
The heartbreaks 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
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
You're like cellophane
You think that you got it wrapped up with your brutal suffocating ways
Oh all the fear all the lies
You think you need to survive
Oh the hearbreaks moving in
Over and over the same thing
From X to Y to Z comply
The heartache barely keeps you alive
The crisis is coming
Over and over the same thing
You think that you got it wrapped up
With your brutal suffocating ways
Like cellophane
Spreading yourself too thin
To begin to feel anything
Oh all the fear
All the lies
What you think you need to survive
The heartbreaks 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
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
Oh all the fear
All the lies
What you think you need to survive
The heartbreaks 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
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
You're like cellophane
You think that you got it wrapped up with your brutal suffocating ways
Oh all the fear all the lies
You think you need to survive
Oh the hearbreaks moving in
Over and over the same thing
From X to Y to Z comply
The heartache barely keeps you alive
The crisis is coming
Over and over the same thing
