SEPTICFLESH
"Shapeshifter"
(Christopher A.)

[Intro:]
The transformation of the butterfly
Occurs in reverse
Beauty eaten abruptly
From the ancient...
Wearing sharp shard
Stolen from scattered mirrors
As a cloak to cover me

[Bridge:]
My strange images
Nest as birds to the hearts of men
And as birds fly away
Taking their thoughts into oblivion
Disintegrating the elemental bonds
I obtain
The rapture of the chameleon

When I become enraged
With the frenzy of the wolf on the hunt
I am the most cherished child of fear

Armed with fangs deadly like daggers
I am an, an adept on the skills of murder
I am the shapeshifter

On the ruins of a ghostly projection
Echoes the lust for life
An ancient purgatory for the sinister

[Bridge:]
Shapeshifter
Shape (Shape, shape, shape, shape, shape, shape)
Shapeshifter
Shape

[Outro:]
The transformation of the butterfly
Occurs in reverse
Beauty eaten abruptly
From the ancient...
Wearing sharp shard
Stolen from scattered mirrors
As a cloak to cover me
