​shapeshifter Lyrics by Sail-E

NIGHT.LIFE.day.death

2021

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Feet moving
Don’t wanna think, only follow what the freaks doing
Too many jagged ones to swallow, shit is deep-rooted
Too many bottles, might be getting the mystique ruined
Afraid they see through it

You do it casual
You swing that body like a weapon, you’re a natural
I can’t compete, but what’s a curve to a diagonal?
What are categories for if we’re compatible?
If you’re down, I have to know

Is it no or yes, baby?
‘Cause maybe I could be your shooter in a dress, baby
Boot him with the rest, no regrets, baby
That boy won’t do it like I do it
And I know that I’m a mess, baby
All I know is you deserve the best, baby

[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t know my name
I look into the mirrors in the bathroom and I feel the same
So maybe that’s okay

[Hook]
Never certain who you look at when you look my way
If all is evanescent, only change is here to stay
I reinvent myself and paint another shade of gray
If I ain’t your type tonight I’ll see you here another day

[Chorus]
(Shapeshifter)
I can’t stay like this no more
(Lane switcher)
I gotta do it all
Let the water fall

[Verse 2]
Never catch me in the all black
I need the colors, need the lights, I need to walk back
It’s late and lately I’ve been dancing ’til the stars black
I need the space, I need expression, need a fallback
I think I need all that

It’s more than yin and yang
Born into the mix and match
Click and drag (yuh)
Brick and mortar, think
Outside the box
That’s an order, I don’t know
I’ve been circling the block so long
Everything looks like a corner
Tesseract

Write an epitaph on yesterday
All is swept away
Exploration neverending, so much left to say
Got some extra bodies for a scatterbrain?
So much pain in matter, let me shatter, make it rain
End of chapter and I’m

[Bridge]
Set ashore
Falling down from heaven hurts like hell
But it’s the only cure
Ravin’ til the morning
Ain’t no nevermore
I gotta free all of the pieces that I kill conforming
Every time I close the door

You look so self-assured
What’s in your metal core?
There’s only two of us
I still feel like the metamor
Connection’s difficult
When you can’t even find the source
Hiding in smoke and mirrors
Drowning in metaphors

You say you feel no difference
Don’t think I’m reassured
Maybe that is the distance
To what was once secure
You think I’m crazy
Acting like we haven’t met before
And all I think is, baby
How can we know for sure?

[Hook]
Never certain who you look at when you look my way
If all is evanescent, only change is here to stay
I reinvent myself and paint another shade of gray
If I ain’t your type tonight I’ll see you here another day

[Chorus]
(Shapeshifter)
I can’t stay like this no more
(Lane switcher)
I gotta do it all
(Shapeshifter)
Let the water fall
