Disappearing Act
Chris Cornell

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 crowd


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 minions 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, oh, 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 out of the veils


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
