Chris Cornell - Disappearing Act Lyrics
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
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
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

"Come on now, the curtain is drawn

Covered cinnamon a Holy land smile

a fuckn legend forever ✌🖤❣💙💋
Chris was the best!*?✌🖤
Master of putting chains of words together with such deep meaning.
Adelia Hogarth ♡ Well put.
Dust on ledges damp the hazy glass, prints in the sideline's frame with the rays falling in,
a moth in a web long abandoned as years settled down with no soul to reside here
I run back to the air
In de the here and now open
and now you will not make me
make me go back
I try a solong, but i know
its a hope to leave to
a next
..luke..
So much pain because of his death. For me the best USA musician.
One of the best lyricists out there. His voice was great, but people forget what an incredible story teller he was.
Rest In Peace to my favorite musician!!! Godfather of grunge and pure genius with his music.Just heard of his death so I went to pick out one of his many songs on my phone and strangely, this was the only one I had on here.
sound so fucking bland
..agree
What is his most recent album?
is Cornell playing that guitar solo?
Sensacional essa música!
fucking amazing!!!!!
LOVE TEMPLE OF THE DOG
LOVE SOUNDGARDEN
LOVE AUDIOSLAVE
LOVE HIS MUSIC
Will we ever get a FULL acoustic version of this like the one in "Bug"?? I hope so........
i was hoping for the Ron Sexsmith version
the best voice of rock and roll
i LOVE 3:43 - 3:50
I like it all... Soundgarden, Audioslave and solo stuff - even Scream. His voice is just so amazing, it gets me every time.
LOVE SOUNDGARDEN
LOVE AUDIOSLAVE
LOVE CHRIS CORNELL
He is one of my favorite singers. Actually, I would say he is my favorite singer.
funny, i don't like much of soundgarden but i love audioslave and chris' solo stuff.
