The Partisan Component - Shapeshifter Lyrics

And so everyone was right about you
Blinded by your beauty
Tolerant to all you put me through
You were a great idea, at the time
It was a dream, to make you mine
Until your true colors shine
I got a glimpse of you for a moment in time

Moment in time

Manipulated
Shapeshifter
Inebriation brought forth, the dark in your heart
I should have seen it, right from the start
You point the finger on past relationships
How will you wipe the taste of blood from your lips
It's not your fault, it never is

It's not your fault, it never is
It's not your fault, it never is

You'll never truly know, what the other person thinks
To put faith in another's words, your f*cking head caves in
From the thoughts and possibilities, it gnaws and gnaws away
Ever sentiment of logic, in every tortured day
Cast a dark shadow on what could be light
You question yourself and what you could have done right
It withers your soul and perceptions of life
You feed on the dark
True love in strife

Stagnation
You're planted and rooted in all of your failures and lies
No victimless victim
There's more to this life than just wasted time
Alcoholic swine
Face down in your trough where you search for your life
The damage is done, this is who you've become

This is who you've become
This is who you've become

You'll never truly know, what the other person thinks
To put faith in another's words, your f*cking head caves in
From the thoughts and possibilities, it gnaws and gnaws away
Ever sentiment of logic, in every tortured day
Cast a dark shadow on what could be light
You question yourself and what you could have done right
It withers your soul and perceptions of life
You feed on the dark
True love in strife
