Let's see your sides
The origins of yourself
Multifaceted lives
Stuck on a dusty shelf

Breathe a heavy sigh
Of relief at your wealth
Let your former die
Leave it behind in filth

You were something else in another time
You were something else in another life
You were something else you've changed again
You're now someone elses shadow when you
Take on another side
Rearranging the tiles
Into little matching piles
Take on another side
Feel free my friend
To play your game of pretend
Take on another side
Take on another side of you

You can't be content
With your current status quo
Your time's been spent
Changing all the things you know

Your gallery of masks
Stolen from your fake friends
All I ever ask
Is that you will not bend

You were something else in another time
You were something else in another life
You were something else you've changed again
You're now someone elses shadow when you
Take on another side
Rearranging the tiles
Into little matching piles
Take on another side
Feel free my friend
To play your game of pretend
Take on another side
Take on another side of you

You were something else
You were someone else
You're all caught up in this, multifaceted, multifascination

(You, are, not, you!
You, are, not, you!
You, are, not, you!
You, are not, YOU!)

You were something else in another time
You were something else in another life
You were something else you've changed again
You're now someone elses shadow when you
Take on another side
Rearranging the tiles
Into little matching piles
Take on another side
Feel free my friend
To play your game of pretend
Take on another side
Take on another side of you

(You, are, not you!
You, are, not, you!
You, are, not, you!
You, are, not YOU!)
Something I was just writing on impulse.
It turned into a situation I had before with a friend. This could be connected to all sorts of people.

In short it's about "followers". Those people who change who they are completely and leave their old friends because their new friends are "cooler".
I've dealt with this a few times...mostly with online friends though.

I see this as a slower tempo metal song. The parts in parentheses would be screaming. I might try this song in the band I'm in.
