Lyrics

“Where have you been?
Been searching all along
Came facing twilight on and on
Without a clue
Without a sign
Without grasping yet
The real question to be asked
Where have I been?

I’m a shapeshifter
At Poe’s masquerade
Hiding both face and mind
All free for you to draw
I’m a shapeshifter
What else should I be?
Please don’t take off my mask
Revealing dark

Moments of calm
Nothing left to be found
A mirror right in front of me
That’s where I find
An empty glass
Reflecting the sad truth
It’s telling words not to be told
I need the mask

I’m a shapeshifter
At Poe’s masquerade
Hiding both face and mind
All free for you to draw
I’m a shapeshifter
Chained down to my core
Please don’t take off my mask
My place to hide

I can’t tell you
How to see me
Just a cage of bones
There’s nothing inside
Will it unleash me?
Burning down the walls
Is there a way
For me to break?

I’m a shapeshifter
At Poe’s masquerade
Hiding both face and mind
All free for you to draw
I’m a shapeshifter
Have no face to show
Please don’t take off my mask
My disguise”
