[Verse 1]

I'll make myself minuscule

As to not get in the way

And while you throw your tantrum

I get crushed under your weight


[Pre-Chorus]

I lose myself, drown in your wake

(Drown in your wake, drown in your wake)

My mental health can't catch a break

(Can't catch a break, can't catch a break)

I build you up, you tear me down

(You tear me down, you tear me down)

I wear your chains, you steal my crown


[Chorus]

Shapeshifter (I'm not, I'm not)

A shapeshifter (I'm not, I'm not)

Up and down and back and forth we go

I didn't see it then, but now I know

I'm not a shapeshifter


[Verse 2]

You're never the bad guy

In your mind, you're always right

And while you sit on your high horse

You block out all the light


[Pre-Chorus]

I lose myself, drown in your wake (Shapeshifter)

My mental health can't catch a break (Shapeshifter)

I build you up, you tear me down (Shapeshifter)

I wear your chains, you steal my crown

Ah-ah


[Chorus]

Shapeshifter (I'm not, I'm not)

A shapeshifter (I'm not, I'm not)

Up and down and back and forth we go

I didn't see it then, but now I know


[Bridge]

From now on I accept the love I give

It holds its shape, doesn't mold me 'til I fit

From now on I accept the love I give

It holds its shape, doesn't mold me 'til I fit

From now on I accept the love I give

It holds its shape, doesn't mold me 'til I fit

From now on I accept the love I give

It holds its shape, doesn't mold me 'til I fit


[Chorus]

Shapeshifter (I'm not, I'm not)

A shapeshifter (I'm not, I'm not)

Up and down and back and forth we go

I didn't see it then, but now I know

I'm not a shapeshifter
