[Intro]
Why won't you let me be?

[Verse 1]
(And I tried to be, and I tried to be)
Everything that you need
(And I tried to be, and I tried to be)
Everything that you want me to be

[Chorus]
You’re changing
Up all your colors like a shapeshifter
Manipulate the others
Too scared to share what's inside you
So you change the walls around you
Shapeshifter, why won't you let me be?

[Verse 2: Mark Faroudi]
Why won’t you let me be?
My blood still stains your teeth
It's like you want something
The girl that haunts my dreams
So much for closure now
Every time I look at you the sun goes down again
So much for closure now
Every time I look at you the sun goes down again
[Chorus]
You're changing
Up all your colors like a shapeshifter
Manipulate the others
Too scared to share what's inside you
So you change the walls around you
Shapeshifter, why won't you let me be?

[Bridge]
Shapeshifter, why won't you let me be?
You'll never change the person inside of me
Shapeshifter, why won't you let me be?
You’ll never change the person inside of me

[Chorus]
You’re changing
Up all your colors like a shapeshifter
Manipulate the others
Too scared to share what's inside you
So you change the walls around you
Shapeshifter, why won’t you let me be?

[Chorus]
You're changing
Up all your colors like a shapeshifter
Manipulate the others
Too scared to share what's inside you
So you change the walls around you
Shapeshifter, why won't you let me be?
