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

im ready for the world to see

the secret i kept here inside the man you thought id be

slip into coma calm

the coma where i calm myself down

here comes excuses why i let you down



stand by for another breakdown

sound off the alarm

is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become

chameleon boy

chameleon boy



so now weve come upon the hardest thing ive ever done

its telling you that im a mess

what sort of mess i mean

is self-destructive gasoline

the kind that strips you of your bed

and while i play insteadthe way that most would end up dead

you sleep alone at home and wish that i was in our bed

with this im telling you

my color changes back to blue

how do i ask you this

will you help me through



stand by for another breakdown

sound off the alarm

is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become

stand by for another breakdown

sound off the alarm

is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become

chameleon boy

chameleon boy



i try to think of all the people i look up to

or growing up who would i be

now the twisted part

whered all my idols end up

they all passed away

passed away



stand by

its chameleon boy

stand by

its chameleon boy

Chameleon Boy

I'm chameleon boy...

chameleon boy...
