Chameleon Boy

Lyrics

[Verse 1:] I changed my color for you I shed my coat with caution I lack the beauty you display See here, there are the bruises And some were self-inflicted And some showed up along the way So I nod my head I'm ready for the world to see The secret I kept here Inside the man you thought I'd be Slip into coma calm The coma where I calm myself down Here comes excuses why I let you down [Chorus:] Stand by for another breakdown Sound off the alarm Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become? Chameleon boy Chameleon boy [Verse 2:] So now we've come upon The hardest thing I've ever done It's telling you that I'm a mess What sort of mess, I mean Is self-destructive gasoline The kind that strips you of your best And while I play instead The way that most would end up dead You sleep alone at home And wish that I was in our bed With this, I'm telling you My color changes back to blue How do I ask you this Will you help me through? [Chorus:] Stand by for another breakdown Sound off the alarm Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become? Stand by for another breakdown Sound off the alarm Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become? Chameleon boy Chameleon boy [Verse 3:] I try to think of all the people I looked up to Or growing up, who would I be? Now the twisted part Where did all my idols end up? They've all passed away Passed away [Outro:] Stand by, it's the chameleon boy Stand by, it's the chameleon boy Chameleon boy I'm the chameleon boy Chameleon boy I'm the chameleon boy
