Song Lyrics

"Chameleon"

by Petra
Album: The Early Years

You want the best of both worlds; you're not getting either,
You seem content to ride the fence, when you know which side is greener,
Some run hot, and some run cold, some run from their maker,
Some run the risk of losing all with lukewarm friends and fakers.

Chameleon, you blend with your surroundings,
Chameleon, no one knows where you come from,
Chameleon, change with every situation, compromising dedication.

You compromise each word you say so inoffensively,
You only want to hide behind your anonymity,
You struggle for acceptance, and it takes you to extremes,
The smile you hide your face behind is not all that it seems.

Chameleon, you blend with your surroundings,
Chameleon, no one knows where you come from,
Chameleon, change with every situation, compromising dedication.

Come out, come out,
Come out from among them,
Come out, come out,
Come out and be free.

There is no grey, no neutral ground; there's only black and white,
And nothing in between the two to turn a wrong into right,
There is no time for your charade, you've got to make your stand,
When salt has lost its savour, the world becomes so bland.

Chameleon, you blend with your surroundings,
Chameleon, no one knows where you come from,
Chameleon, you change with every situation, compromising dedication,
Chameleon, you blend with your surroundings,
Chameleon, no one knows where you come from,
Chameleon, you change with every situation, compromising dedication.
