rueckus - chameleon's tale lyrics

[intro]
i’ll write a little list
of all the things i’m doing right
all these mannerisms perfect
will they set my future bright?

if i live my life disguised, is it a hinderance if it works?
and to be trapped in a cage, well, even that has got its perks!

[instrumental]

[verse 1]
i do wonder what age it was i realised
that the world won’t care unless they like the look of my eyes!

is that a frown, a smile?
a trash heap worth my while?
pace around my room and cover a good mile

[bridge]
i’ll write a littlе list
of all the things i’m doing right
all these mannеrisms perfect
will they set my future bright?

if i live my life disguised, is it a hinderance if it works?
and to be trapped in a cage, well, even that has got its perks!
[chorus]
exert yourself enough
i’ll be just the way everyone wants
so paint it over, then
you’ll be fine if you can convince them
that one of them you are
that’s the way it’s done, how you’ll get far!
i’ll be a grand display
tailored, down to every detail
that’s a chameleon’s tale!

[verse 2]
makeup always sheds right along with my scales
i’ll just reapply if any of it ends up unveiled

my appearance can always be refigured
and unlike my mind, it’s not quite as disfigured

[bridge]
these mannerisms perfect—
will they end all of my strife?
everyday i grieve that just might be
the way i must survive

if i live my life a fraud, is it a hinderance to my core?
though i’m tethered to a cage, do i at least make good décor?
still, i’ll write a big, long list
of every mistake that i make
i cannot afford to crumble any more
or i will break
won’t you spare me a while longer
just to polish up my act?
because even with forever
i still can’t outrun the facts

keep your pigment sharp
just a little longer, hold your spark
and soon, they’ll put you back
back to where you don’t have to keep track

hold your head up high
even if it’s torture just to try
my sacred sanctuary:
to be loved as a monstrosity
i live in secrecy

that’s a chameleon’s tale
