Shape Shifter Songtext
von Amon Amarth

I was born of giant′s blood
Raised in Asgård, the home of gods
I am the master of disguise
For this trait, I've gained your prise
Fast in thought, quicker tongue
Brawl with me and you′ll get stung
I am the master of deceit
My words bind or set you free

I am the walker on the wind (the shape-shifter)
Two-faced words and a lying grin (the shape-shifter)

You call me evil, curse my name
But you only have yourselves to blame
Order needs its anarchy, balance through calamity
We mixed our blood in olden days
Now I wander like a stray
We were brothers, now estranged
I will have my sweet revenge


My words are poison to your ears
I say the words you fear
Still, you know it is the truth you hear
Ragnarök is drawing near

There you sit in Aegir's hall
Waiting for the coming fall
Council of the now condemned
Twilight of both gods and men
Face the facts, you're old and weak
Empty words are all you speak
No escape, there′s no return
The universe shall bleed and burn

I am the eagle in the sky (the shape-shifter)
Vicious wolf howling in the night (the shape-shifter)
I am the walker on the wind (the shape-shifter)
Two-faced words and a lying grin (the shape-shifter)

I am the eagle in the sky
The vicious wolf howling in the night
I am the walker on the wind
Lying words with an honest grin (the shape-shifter)
