Lyrics

Why won't you let me be?
(And I tried to be, and I tried to be)
Everything that you need
(And I tried to be, and I tried to be)
Everything that you want me to be
You're changing
Up all your colors like a shapeshifter
Manipulate the others
Too scared to share what's inside you
So you change the walls around you
Shapeshifter, why won't you let me be?
Why won't you let me be?
My blood still stains your teeth
It's like you want something
The girl that haunts my dreams
So much for closure now
Every time I look at you the sun goes down again
So much for closure now
Every time I look at you the sun goes down again
You're changing
Up all your colors like a shapeshifter
Manipulate the others
Too scared to share what's inside you
So you change the walls around you
Shapeshifter, why won't you let me be?
Shapeshifter, why won't you let me be?
You'll never change the person inside of me
Shapeshifter, why won't you let me be?
You'll never change the person inside of me
You're changing
Up all your colors like a shapeshifter
Manipulate the others
Too scared to share what's inside you
So you change the walls around you
Shapeshifter, why won't you let me be?
You're changing
Up all your colors like a shapeshifter
Manipulate the others
Too scared to share what's inside you
So you change the walls around you
Shapeshifter, why won't you let me be?
