Shapeshifter Songtext

Shapeshifter

I was so good at hiding
I forgot to see
Shrouded in self-inflicted misery
I′m breathing
Alive, but barely breathing
I'm breathing
Alive, but barely breathing

I got lost in pleasing you
Became a part of you
Masking so I don′t have to face my problems
I'm barely breathing
Alive, but barely breathing
I'm barely breathing
Alive, but barely breathing

Shapeshifter


Bury me underground
Leave me to sink below the water
Rip out my broken heart
Leave me alone just like you oughta
I need to find another piece that′s mine
I need to find another state of mind
Shapeshifter
Stay the hell away from me

Not what you want
I am not what you want
I′ll never be

It's been so long pretending
I don′t know who I am anymore
Seek answers on the bathroom floor

I bowed down to worship you
Suppressing all I knew
Veiling so I don't have to face my failures

I′m breathing
Alive, but barely breathing
I'm breathing
Alive, but barely breathing

Shapeshifter


Bury me underground
Leave me to sink below the water
Rip out my broken heart
Leave me alone just like you oughta
I need to find another piece that′s mine
I need to find another state of mind
Shapeshifter
Stay the hell away from me

Not what you want
I am not what you want
I'll never be

All that you see
Lives in reality

I rise from the grave
I start my rebirth
I'm gasping for air as I choke on the earth
Claw at my skin
Break all my bones
Give a pound of flesh to pay what I owe

I seek in the dark
A glimpse of the light
Yet hope is forthcoming, she wills me to fight
The surface it breaks
To welcome the night
I can finally see
I can finally breathe, I′m alive

Bury me underground
Leave me to sink below the water
Rip out my broken heart
Leave me alone just like you oughta
I need to find another piece that′s mine
I need to find another state of mind
Shapeshifter
Stay the hell away from me

Not what you want
I am not what you want
I'll never be
