Disappearing Act

Jet black fought back at the blink of an eyeToo young, too proud and never short on wordsAnother riddle without a solutionWaiting for his chance to startA revolving chain of complications, affirmationsPassing planeIf you're so confident then tell meDoes it make your heart grow fonder watching all your glory fade?Can you taste it on your lip as you turn your head and walk away?You swore you'd never let yourself believeThere was anything out there you couldn't reachAnd like a skyscraper you stood tallWhile the rest of the world was waiting for you to slip underWell hey Houdini is that you I see?Carpet pulled from beneath youAnother house of cards caves inAgain and again and againDoes it make your heart grow fonder watching all your glory fade?Can you taste it on your lip as you turn your head and walk away?I know that it's harder to breathe knowing that you had it madeWalk away but don't disappear on meDon't disappear on meThe sweat on your palms will predict the disasterGrinding your teeth and your heart's beating like a drumTrembling hand, the show time suspenseI've lost it by now, you'll be thrown out of thisDoes it make your heart grow fonder watching all your glory fade?Can you taste it on your lip as you turn your head and walk away?I know that it's harder to breathe knowing that you had it madeWalk away but don't disappear on meDon't disappear on me
