Story Behind The Song

Based off of one line I had written down at a restaurant - "you've wrapped up my bleeding heart in your leftover cellophane"...and the story behind that relationship

Song Description

Chorus says it all - if love is indeed blind, why can't she fall in love with me again?

Lyrics

Blinded

You know it seems to fall apart a little at a time
like the seems of the jeans you bought me when you were mine
you've wrapped up my bleeding heart in your leftover cellophane
and put it on the shelf never mind all the pain

I know you loved me once. Why can't we do it twice?
When will you be blinded again?

So have a nice life you said. But who the hell am I?
If I'm not with you I'm just another ex-boyfriend type
If I unwrap my frozen heart from your precious cellophane
and put it back on my sleave can we try this again?

I know you loved me once. Why can't we do it twice?
When will you be blinded again?

They say the scars will itch a little as they fade away with time
like the jeans it seems I'm wearing only every other night
Is this how love should feel? Well maybe I should think about
rolling down my sleeves and sitting this one out.

I know you loved me once. Why can't we do it twice?
When will you be blinded again?
