Shapeshifter Lyrics by Mini Trees
You’ll always find your way back
If you retrace and follow your old path
Back pedal, pulling by my hand
Reverse and do it over again
Sewed together pieces of nothing
A tapestry frayed at the edges
Oh, tell me when you start to see something
That I can’t see for myself
I’m bending over backwards
Shapeshifting acrobatic dancer
Tongue tied, but I’m well dressed actor
And I’m over it and overdone
Turning around
And folding me inside out
‘Til I am a shell or myself
I’m always trying to keep the balance
Halfway and running up against myself
I struggle to convince
And in the end nobody wins
Tied together pieces of nothing
A tapestry frayed at the edges
Oh, tell me when you start to see something
That I can’t see for myself
Turning around
And folding me inside out
‘Til I am a shell or myself
Finding out how
To put on someone else
It’s safe for now but
I’m running out
I’m bending over backwards
Shapeshifting acrobatic dancer
Tongue tied, but I’m well dressed actor
And I’m over it and overdone
