the chain is broken
i hear it rattle as you slip away from me
my part was spoken
but my eyes tell the story differently
and i've tried to hide it
but i still look up when you walk in the room
i can't stand by as you tear apart the world i built for you

stephanie, don't you see?
the crystal vision that you trust
has come between the both of us
stephanie, don't you see?
the limelight turned you sour
now it's turning you away from me

maybe i'm a dreamer
but i did believe that i could make you stay
the ones you dream of
always seem to be the ones who run away
so go your own way
enchanted as your taken by the sky
the glitter fades and
i see you through the mirror's other side

stephanie, don't you see?
the crystal vision that you trust
has come between the both of us
stephanie, don't you see?
the limelight turned you sour
now it's turning you away from me

you turn, turn away from me
the colors fade and bleed

stephanie, don't you see?
the crystal vision that you trust
has come between the both of us
stephanie, don't you see?
the limelight turned you sour
now it's turning you away from...
stephanie, now i see
the crystal vision that you trust
proved to be too much for us
stephanie, now i see
the limelight turned you sour
and you're never turning back to me
