THE CHAMELEON Lyrics

(Choose your fighter)

Like a snake I shed my skin

With every experience

Bury it within

I learnt to change all of my colours

Adapt and evolve

Take days to recover

They said I'm too sensitive

So I cut it off

Now I'm so numb

I forgot what feeling was

Then it all hits me

Like I'm made of glass

Cracking and breaking

They all move so fast

They say choose your fighter

But they know I'm the outsider

It chose me to be the chameleon

So they never see how I'm feeling

Blend in to my surroundings

I can feel the anxiety mounting

(Be the chameleon)

(Be the chameleon)

Like a monkey I do as I see

With every interaction

Mimic and agree

Don't look them in the eye

They'll see you are

(Wearing a disguise)

They said I'm too quiet

So I became loud

Now I can't control

What comes out my mouth

Opinionated can't stop me now

Then I just crash and burn

All they see's a frown

I'm sorry to all the friends that I've ghosted

It's not you, I'm just hopeless

Try to keep in check all my anxiety

Promise I don't take this shit lightly

I don't go out on the weekends

How do you people keep friends?

Take my time to restore all my energy

It chose me to be the chameleon

So they never see how I'm feeling

Blend in to my surroundings

I can feel the anxiety mounting

(Be the chameleon)

(Be the chameleon)

Feel it on my skin, slither in

Look at the state I'm in

Opening my eyes I wanna cry

Cause of the world I'm in

This world isn't for me and I see

I gotta fight to survive

(Doesn't anybody know what that's like?)

Walk like a zombie

Nobody can get through to me

Drained down, blacked out

Heading to a shutdown

What keeps me alive is my pride

I gotta shout to confide

(Doesn't anybody know what that's like?)

(Be the chameleon)

(Be the chameleon)
