Shapeshifter

Last year, I found a small snippet, a chorus, if you will, and just the note "put her name in it" in my Word documents. This piece had not been modified since 2003. I can only imagine who this is about...a past band member? Yes. So, when I found this, I re-wrote the chorus and wrote some verses. (Can you find her name in the words?)

I had never really liked this piece. It has always seemed very rushed to me. Both parts, the newest and the latest. Alas, I have been infatuated with the concept of desiring to change yourself so much, that you are able to shift your physical self. The sheer willpower of man is strong and beautiful thing.

Shapeshifter

She’s a shape shifter.
She’ll show you her heart.
She’s a shape shifter.
She’ll show you your heart.

Beating you down with all she knows
She is only folklore
A figment of my blank stares

It’s just like choking
Gone in a cloud of smoke
Decapitate me and let me see your deceit

She’s a shape shifter.
She’ll show you her heart.
She’s a shape shifter.
She’ll show you your heart.
