CHRIS CORNELL lyrics : "Disappearing Act"

Come on now, the curtain is drawn
And tomorrow stands before you
Dressed and draped in a coal black cape

Like a crow, he ignores you
Look again, there's a beautiful girl
Covered cinnamon a Holy land smile

It's the great disappearing act
Done once again for tomorrow
As we're chasing our tails

Biting our nails
So strong and frail


And we build and tear down
Build and tear down
Build and tear down

We've run out of time to say
How did it get so late
I'll never know


Step outside, now the door's open wide
And the minons are eager to find him

Put a million miles under your heels
And you're still behind him
Cover your clocks with your chains and your locks

While the seasons get hotter and colder
Stretch your faces and lie about your ages
And still we're gonna get older

As we're chasing our tails
Biting our nails
So strong and frail


And we build and tear down
Build and tear down

Build and tear down
We've run out of time to say
How did it get so late

I'll never know
I'll never know


Hang onto your fingers
Making your hands unwind
He will escape you every time

From under your pillows
Through open windows and lie in open willows


And we build and tear down
Build and tear down
Build and tear down

We've run out of time to say
How did it get so late
I'll never know

I'll never know
I'll never know
