Haken
Shapeshifter
[Verse 1]
Dance into the masquerade
I am the only man who has a face
In this land of no identity
Who leads your secret society?

[Chorus]
So deep in her disguise
I fail to recognize my sister
The shapeshifter will never change her ways

[Verse 2]
You make the first descent
This atmosphere becomes intense
As you start to undress
My robes of consciousness

[Chorus]
So deep in her disguise
I did not recognize my sister
The shapeshifter will never change her ways

[Bridge]
In the mist you fade to grey
Lost in a city where vampires are guarding the gates
And you vanish with no trace
Warped and distorted, my fear is escorted away
Pleasure I mistake for pain
My demons and angels are playing a dangerous game
Inside the vessel of my friends
I'm haunted by strangers, they're craving a thirst for revenge
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
I surrender to the view
To find the replacement, a manifestation of you
One God to whom I seldom pray
Created by science, you work in mysterious ways

[Chorus]
So deep in her disguise
I still don't recognize my sister
The shapeshifter will never change her ways

[Outro]
When you are dreaming
I am wide awake
Believe when you see me
In the mind's eye I wait while you are sleeping
