Shapeshifter Lyrics by Bleed From Within

Shrine (Deluxe Edition)

2022

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
