lyrics

Tangled ribbons and a heavy weight
A dazzling show behind a vacant gaze
When a dream don't make sense, that's what it remains
It looks pretty from afar
So you better stay right where you are
I'll keep it in a music box, forever small and safe

Chorus:
Just imagine everyone
Who I wish I could become
Tableau vivant, not how we want
Because I must stay in character

I was content with distant stars
And books that end before their starts
But lately this thing has been crossing my mind more and more
Empty handed, got nothing to lose
I'm offered chances, that's my cue
To recite the reasons that I think I might rather ignore

Repeat Chorus:
I get paper cuts on these shreds of hope
'Cause all I want is to break free and still I don't
I could crush this wish under my foot
Or I could tear down the curtain and tell the tale of how the earth shook

Tangled ribbons and a heavy weight
A dazzling show behind a vacant gaze
Tangled ribbons and a heavy weight
A dazzling show behind a vacant gaze
