You say I've changed
Into something I can't recognise
Yet still I wage
War on your cold scathing eyes
So tell me who
The predator or the prey?
You look into the mirror
And see everyday
True colours are but shades
Wearing them like an effigy
Plastic, like make believe tales
Is this who I'm meant to be?

You say I've changed
Into something I can't recognise
Yet still I wage
War on your cold scathing eyes
So tell me who
The predator or the prey?
You look into the mirror
And see everyday
True colours are but shades
Wearing them like an effigy
Plastic, like make believe tales
Is this who I'm meant to be?
