lyrics

the songs that set you free
now ball and chain strapped to your feet
you travel town to town
just like a circus clown

singing songs that you wrote
over two decades ago
that you no longer believe in
but still sing cause it's convenient

you were my idol
my hero
my god

you're a liar
a fake
a fraud

so take off that fucking mask
and tell the truth
you're just cellophane
we can see through you

you've gotten a little older
and a lot less relevant
in an attempt to tip the scales
you try to inflate yourself

tell the kids that you're important
that they should watch and learn
but this aint the scene you started
it has changed and so have they

you were
one of my
favorite fucking bands

but now
when i see you live
i just get sad

so take off that fucking mask
and tell the truth
you're just cellophane
we can see through you

you swore that you'd never grow up
you swore that you'd always stay young
you swore that you'd never grow up
you feel trapped you feel stuck

so take off that fucking mask
and tell the truth
you're just cellophane
we can see through you
