Ever felt like your heart's been wrapped in clingy plastic and put on display? FKA twigs captures that suffocating sensation of love under scrutiny. Our protagonist is pouring out her soul, doing everything for her partner, but gets nada in return. The nosy world around them is eager to see their romance crumble—like spectators at a dramatic breakup show. She craves the warmth of undivided attention but gets overwhelmed by loneliness when he's gone. The cellophane metaphor brilliantly conveys how fragile and transparent their feelings are, easily torn apart by outside forces. It's a haunting ballet of vulnerability and unreciprocated devotion that leaves you feeling every bit as exposed as she does.
