Lyrics
Way in the deep down low
My eyes spun to the east
And there came the beast with a storm on the rise
Was it the dawning gray or a thing more strange
That obscured its form in a distant kind of familiar way
Cause I've seen ghosts in the desert
That blow like a feather in the wind of a horrible dream
But my mind begs to differ
This ghost seems familiar like a memory lost in the dream
Oh shapeshifter
Shapeshifter
Way in the deep down low
Weary eyes are prone to lies
Worse yet by a darkened haze
But I swear by thunder I saw up yonder
A shapeshifter on the rise
Look how it bends and it twists
Like a monster from the myths that used to scare me when I was a boy
But I'm bent on the land of eternal black sand
So catch me if you can
Oh shapeshifter
Shapeshifter
Shapeshifter who are you
And are you gonna stay awhile
No I ain't lonely silence tends to grow on me
If you don't mind I'll carry on
Shapeshifter who are you
And are you gonna stay awhile
I thought I was a goner
But just one look in your eyes and I'm carrying on
