Shapeshifting
Trying to fit into your standards
Trying to make you look my way
Trying to be something I ain't
Bending over backwards
Trying to please you
Giving me flowers
When I was losing myself
Over and over
‘Cause that's what I did for you
But what did you do for me?
We both know you never really loved me
It was getting harder every day to breathe
Behind the mask I wore to make you happy
When every night I cried myself to sleep
Endlessly shapeshifting
Built altars just for you
Filled your cup 'til I had nothing
Died of thirst in a never-ending drought
‘Cause you said you could never really love me enough
That dagger you put into my heart
That I cleaned and polished just for you
I bled myself dry
Made up lies and excuses
To try and make you love me more
Drew out a fantasy and made you the hero
Guess I was nothing without you
cnd what did you do for me?
We both know you never really loved me
It was getting harder every day to breathe
Behind the mask I wore to make you happy
When every night I cried myself to sleep
Who am I?
(Who am I?
)
How did I get into this mess?
Who am I?
(Who am I?
)
I don't recognize myself
How could I?
(Who am I?
)
If all I did was lose myself
Over and over again
Who am I?
(Who am I?
)
How did I get into this mess?
Who am I?
(Who am I?
)
I don't recognize myself
How could I?
(Who am I?
)
When all I did was lose myself
Over and over again
cnd what did you do for me?
We both know you never really loved me
You never knew how much it was breaking me
Wearing that mask just to make you happy
When every night I cried myself to sleep
Endlessly shapeshifting
I don't even know who I am without you
'Cause I lost myself with you
