Chalk Outline

I've been circling, getting dizzy
Been twiddling my thumbs to stay busy
As Time ticks by it's leaving me behind
I'm just a ghost, no better than most
And the monochrome tones are enough to chill a man to the bone
Nothing seen nothing shown

And when I start to strain
I bend like cardboard in the rain
And I'll be the one to break
So come on, come on bring me some tape
To hang the sign, oh never mind
The writing's on the wall

I've been doing things I never thought I'd do
Feels like i'm strolling round in someone else's shoes
I know they're not mine but I don't know who they belong to
All my life it flashes by in eclipses and in phrases
And its not enough to piece together, shattered the mosaic set in stone
Please don't let me drone

Don't let me drone

And when I start to strain
I bend like cardboard in the rain
And I'll be the one to break
So come on, come on bring me some tape
To hang the sign, oh never mind
The writing's on the wall

And now I'm burning hot from that shitty fan I bought
And I'm trying to keep it cool but I'm stuck in old Prescott
And my motor burned out
Yeah, I can change my hue, a more fitting Jay Z blue
Yeah, I'm a chameleon, I'm changing right on cue
The most skilled roustabout

And when I start to strain
I bend like cardboard in the rain
And I'll be the one to break
So come on, come on bring me some tape
To hang the sign, oh never mind
The writing's on the wall
