Shape-Shifting

When will I be done changing?
Can't I stay the same?
Wanna stay how I remember
When my mother paved the way
When did everybody start shape-shifting?
Can't I stay a square?
Don't wanna blend into the circles
I'm finding everywhere
But any minute now
It's gunna happen
Again
I'm gunna let myself down
And forget everything

Packed my life
Away again
Lights turned on
So off I went
Time moved backwards
Got caught up ahead
No one came to ground me
I lost my head

Am I ever gunna stop pretending
I know everything?
Wanna stay inside your orbit
And learn every word you sing
When did I start being so cautious?
Like everything I did
Would be written and cemented
On the graves they're gunna dig
But any minute now
It's gunna happen
Again
I'm gunna let myself down and forget everything

Packed my life
Away again
Lights turned on
So off I went
Time moved backwards
Got caught up ahead
No one came to ground me
I lost my head
When will I be done changing?
Can't I stay the same?
Wanna stay how I remember
And learn every word you sing
When did everybody start shape-shifting?
Can't I stay a square?
Don't wanna blend into the circles
I'm finding everywhere
