lirik lagu liability luke - chameleon

the seraph and the serpent both are dead
so i burned a hole in the back of my head
what’s the point of penance when the cycle just goes on
i warped myself to wash your feet, but if i’m not me, then who am i at all

a collage of blurry photographs on this blank~slate blanket~statement of a guise
the mod podge glazes over my eyes; your mortality depends on my guide (it’s ride or die!)
my self~given designation ain’t enough my “true” self, but lizards can’t live on air
why be real if i could be your ideal? revel in your imaginary stare

does choosing what i am make me any less real than you
i ain’t got a clue

chameleon
my colors shift beneath the sun
chameleon… the mask is what defines me
and i’m no longer art when no one’s left admiring

medusa gazed on all but me, how can it be? i’ve got a superstition
cross my fingers when i wonder if i live inside your mind or die inside thy eyes
drop a mirror and grow fonder of the pieces of myself i cannot find

and that’s fine! i’ve never been of stable mind
and i can’t tell what’s genuine and what’s performative anymore

chameleon
i redo until undone
the floodlights get shut off but i still blend in with the wall
red, gold, and green aren’t what they seem, so who am i at all
if i were cloaked in black could you still recognize my voice
if my identity was nothing would i still be your second choice
i’ll be your disco ball ~ reflect back your own image in kaleidoscopic mirrors
i’ll be a sinner or a saint but bad luck is my fate if broken mirrors make these murky waters clearer

i burned this hole in the back of my head, but your thoughts will be the bullet that shoots me dead
my finger’s on the trigger, but i’ll let you pull
won’t you do it? won’t you prove it? won’t you burn that hole straight through my skull

no, no, no, no
won’t you let this be the death of me so it’s your fault and not mine
i have to get away this time, no, you’ll never take me alive
i’m lost inside your eyes
reflect from shattered disco b~lls (oh and all for nothing at all)
mirror on the wall
i’m begging
“who am i at all?”

i am the mask
it doesn’t matter who i was
’cause i am the mask. if no one saw the tree fall
did it really happen? am i more than your perception
i am the mask
your eyes are my ceiling of glass
i’m lost beneath the black, but vivid hues conceal my flaws
i’m my own villain if there’s a villain after all
karma, karma
i take and take and pay the price
karma, karma
i must recast the dice
authenticity’s a cell to me
i die inside thy reptile eyes

chameleon (karma, karma, take and take and pay the price)
i redo until undone (karma, karma, i must recast the dice!)
the floodlights get shut off but i still blend in with the wall (authenticity’s a cell to me, i die inside thy reptile eyes!)
red, gold, and green aren’t what they seem
so who am i at all

and, god, you’re only seventeen~ obsessed~ there’s nothing in between
your brain engulfed red, gold, and green, but you are only velveteen
that tattered soul you pray, one day, itself to you reveal
just drop thy shield, take off the mask
you become
