"Changeling"

CHANGELING 

WRITTEN BY STACY M PRICE

~Verse 1~ 

When my world was dim 

You appeared /out of ~nowhere~ 

Turned my life into, a whirlwind, And I fell 

~Helpless~ to your~ snare~ 

You brought me all that I need 

To your ~positivity~ / I ~concede~ 

Your shining light, Saved me from despair 

And was the answer / to all my prayers 

~~~~~CHORUS~~~~~

Oh Changeling 

How you changed me 

The true you I couldn't see 

Forever hidden behind a mask 

Should have had the sense to ask 

Oh Changeling 

How was I so blind? 

Cause I just laid back 

And watched you 

Perpetrate your crime 

~~Verse 2~~ 

Your seductive nature has lead 

Me astray / while you leech off me 

You took so much pride, in consuming mine

And still~ I Remained / Devoted 

Was fooled by false emotions 

Like you drugged me / with ~magic potion~ 

You are the evil fruit, of a poison tree 

Believe me to be weak / but I disagree 

**~~** Repeat Chorus **~~** 

~~~Verse 3~~~ 

You’re a user, but still useless 

Just stand back and watch you 

Shapeshift your life, No better than a drifter 

Chameleon constantly changing 

Seize control like a ~Machiavellian~ 

You cut through me like a knife 

Almost ended my young life

You’re a parasite, depleting all reserves

Someday you’ll get punished / just what you deserve

**~~** Repeat Chorus **~~**

~~~~Verse 4~~~~

You call out my name, Beckoning,

I pretend I didn't hear

you will get your day of reckoning

No regrets, refuse to allow any more tears

~Eventually~ you will repay your debts

You are a piece of work, a freak show

Be sure to charge admission fee

Would be the first time you made money honestly

Mostly everyone has met a Changeling and later regretted it. A Changeling is a shape-shifter, so to speak, the kind of person who spends their whole lives acting out roles, manipulating and playing games. No one ever sees who a changeling really is inside because of their "masks". They set up elaborate charades all designed to make others bend to their will and give them what they want. They work very hard to make sure they don't have to actually work hard.


This song is about human leeches who alter their appearance, hobbies, values, beliefs and anything else necessary to land them a specific target's affection. They leech all they can from the target, money, cars and so on. They then move in, live off of them and slowly bleed them dry. When there is nothing left to take, they reinvent themselves again and secure the next victim before leaving the current one completely broken and alone. Sociopaths, they don't feel remorse, guilt or shame...


Watch out, if you let them in your life, Changelings will destroy you!
