Shapeshifter Lyrics

Album: Shrine

I see a shapeshifter in the corner of the room

Restless embers fill this tomb

Don't look twice at the devil himself

The first is a blessing

A second is hell

Feed this new belief

Eyes burn a hole in me

I stretch myself to fit this identity you made

I've held my breath for so long

But in the grip of the cynic, I am reborn

Now even in my dark days, I shed this wolfskin

But it's wearing thin under the friction, the friction of life

Shatter all the negative judgement

A mirror image fallacy

Faceless giants in an abstract realm of twisted fantasy

Nothing left to betray

Magnify the crownless fraud you portray (Living inside yourself)

Deeper down than you see

Life begins when you erase the sabotage

I see a shapeshifter in the corner of my eye

Reflections of a failed design

Walk with me, do not look down

I turn to the edge

It was all in my head

To fill the noose

Now you bend the truth

I stretch myself to fit this identity you crave

I stand before you as all hope fades away

But in the grip of the cynic, I am reborn

The silence now depleted

There is no room to fail

I'll take what's mine and slay the rest

Feed on the pulse of the innocent

But preach integrity

Sharpen your teeth and prepare to feed

Nothing left to betray

Magnify the crownless fraud you portray

Nothing left to betray

Magnify the crownless fraud you portray (Living inside yourself)

Deeper down than you see

Life begins when you erase the sabotage

Sabotage

(I've held my breath for so long)

Now even in my dark days, I shed this wolfskin

But it's wearing thin under the friction, the friction of life
