Changeling from The Woods by Lydia the Bard

Im not meant to be here and they’ll all see it soon
Im speaking and saying, the human displaying but it’s all out of tune

Im a warped reflection, mending cracks with glue
I’m racing to fix them just gotta convince them that I’m one of them too

Start walking
Stop talking
Keep smiling
Too widely
Be normal
pretend There’s
a human inside me

Start walking
Stop talking
Keep smiling
Too widely
Be normal
pretend There’s
a human inside me

Perception
Inflection
Control your
Expression
Control
Control
Control

Changeling
Oh won’t someone save me
Lost to those who’d name me
Try to play the part but all you really wants to
Change me
Oh but can you blame me
Not the one who made me
Don’t you know I wish that I was somebody else too

I’m a mess of motion,
My mouth skips lines and cues
I’m trying to stop it but babe once I’m on it, this train is on the loose

Oh won’t someone slow down
Can’t keep up with you
I’m watching eyes flicker to quick pull the trigger, then line up, aim and shoot

Start walking
Stop talking
Keep smiling
Too widely
Be normal pretend
There’s a human inside me

Perception
Inflection
Control your
Expression
Control
Control
Control

Changeling
Oh won’t someone save me
Lost to those who’d name me
Try to play the part but all you really wants to
Change me
Oh but can you blame me
Not the one who made me
Don’t you know I wish that I was somebody else too

I don’t belong
I don’t belong
I don’t belong
I don’t belong

Changeling
Oh won’t someone save me
Lost to those who’d name me
Try to play the part but all you really wants to

Change me
Oh but can you blame me
Not the one who made me
Don’t you know I wish that I was somebody

Change me
Change me
Change me
Change me
Change me
Change me
Change me
Change me
