Disappearing Act Lyrics

Come on now the curtain is drawn

And tomorrow stands before you

Dressed and draped in a cold black cape like a crow

He ignores you

Look again there's a beautiful girl

Covers sin in a holy land shroud

It's the great disappearing act

Done once again for the marveled crowd

As we're chasing our tails

And biting our nails

So strong and frail

And we build and tear it down

Build and tear it down

Build and tear it down

With barely the time to say

How did it get so late

I'll never know

Step outside and 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

And biting our nails

So strong and frail

And we build and tear it down

Build and tear it down

Build and tear it down

With barely the time to say

How did it get so late

I'll never know

I'll never know

I'll never know

Hang on 'til your fingers break

And your hands unwind

He will escape you every time

From under your pillows

Through open windows

And out on the rails

As we build and tear it down

Build and tear it down

Build and tear it down

With barely the time to say

How did it get so late

I'll never know

I'll never know

I'll never know
