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
Covered cinnamon a Holy land smile
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
How did it get so late
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

Chris Cornell, all'anagrafe Christopher John Boyle (Seattle, 20 luglio 1964 – Detroit, 18 maggio 2017), è stato un cantante e musicista statunitense. Noto per il suo potente timbro vocale e la sua sensibilità poetica, ha raggiunto fama internazionale come frontman dei Soundgarden, gruppo grunge di Seattle che ha segnato l'onda sonora degli anni '90. Oltre a questo successo, Cornell ha collaborato con altri artisti importanti come Eddie Vedder (Pearl Jam) nel progetto Temple of the Dog e ha formato Audioslave, supergruppo rock composto da membri dei Rage Against the Machine. Ha anche intrapreso una carriera solista di grande successo, pubblicando album apprezzati dalla critica e dal pubblico. Tra i brani più rappresentativi di Chris Cornell figurano "Black Hole Sun", "Spoonman", "Fell on Black Days" (Soundgarden), "Hunger Strike" (Temple of the Dog) e "Like a Stone" (Audioslave). La sua musica, caratterizzata da melodie intense e testi introspettivi, ha lasciato un'impronta indelebile nella storia del rock.
