Shapeshifter Songtext
von Seraphic

Each day she wakes and asks the same thing:
Who will I be today? Who does the world wish to see?
She wears a mask of beauty like a radiant queen
And one by one, she fools them all
It′s second nature to her as she crawls

Through the depths of hell in her soul
Mercurial perversions take hold
Before your eyes she morphs into the mould
The shapeshifter dances as she takes new form

Carefully constructing her deceit
The pretty lies for greedy eyes that feast upon the fake
Entertain us and enchant us, they all cry
Naked as ambition calls
A demon of desire as she falls

Through the depths of hell in her soul
Mercurial perversions take hold
Before your eyes she morphs into the mould
The shapeshifter dances as she takes new form


Scratch the surface just to find decay
The remnants of a dream fading away
She's just ashes and dust
From the bonfire of the vain

Beneath the cloak of night
Like a snake, she sheds her skin
Revealing all her scars
The duality of who we really are

Shapeshifter
A demon in disguise
Shapeshifter
With fire in her eyes
Shapeshifter
Saint or sinner?
You′ll never catch her as she flies into the night

Looking for the heaven in her soul
The endless search for peace consumes her whole
Hopeful hearts that harden and grow cold
The shapeshifter dances and dances

And dances, in the depths of hell in her soul
Mercurial perversions take hold
Before your eyes she morphs into the mould
The shapeshifter dances as she takes new form
