Shapeshifter Meaning & Lyrics (This Is Last)
Kikuchi Youhou writes about ‘unseen colors’ being one’s true self. Lines mention breaking molds and rejecting rigid ideals. The lyrics show frustration with losing authenticity through conformity.
Iyaki Ga Sashite ItaI was getting sick of it.
Doko De Machigaeta-n DarouI wonder where I went wrong,
Tooku Naru Risou Zou GaThat ideal image of me grows more distant,
Mitome Aenaku NattekuAnd we can’t see eye-to-eye anymore.
Ahoreru Kurai Ni Bokura WaWe’re foolish enough to be,
Itami De Manabu Ikimono DeCreatures who only learn through pain,
Kareru Kurai Nayan Demo MoAnd even when we worry ourselves sick,
Kotae Wa Wakaranai MamaWe still don’t have the answer.
Awaseru Koto Ga Shidai Ni Umaku NatteI’ve gotten better and better at just fitting in,
Tsunotta Koukai To Hirei Shite Mienai WatashiAnd as my regrets piled up, the real me disappeared.
Furukusai Shisou Hanashiau Yochi Mo Nai HodoSo old-fashioned, there’s no room to even talk it out.
Tarinakatta No WaThe thing I was missing,
Risou Ja NakuteWasn’t some ideal.
Bukiyou Na Ai De KawattekuI’m changing with this clumsy love,
Hitohada No Sunao Sa Ni KizuiteRealizing an honesty that feels skin-deep.
Daremo Kiyou Ni Ikirareru Wake Ja NaiNo one can live their life so skillfully,
Me Ni Mienai Irodori Wa Kitto Kimi Jishin NandaAnd the colors you can’t see are surely you, yourself.
Sou Ja Nai Kou Ja NaiIt’s not this, it’s not that,
Sore Wa Kou Aru Beki Ja NaiThis isn’t how it’s supposed to be.
Sore Ja Nanka TsumaranaiSomehow, that just feels boring,
Hamatta Kata Wo KowashitaiI want to break the mold I’m stuck in.
Awaseru Koto Ga Shizen To Kurushiku NatteIt’s naturally become painful to just go along,
Kurutta Shisou Fuman Ikari Hihyou Shite Mienai WatashiWith all my crazy thoughts, frustrations, and criticisms, the real me is gone.
Urusai Na Mou Wakari Au Yochi Mo Nai Yo ToIt’s all just noise, there’s no room for understanding anymore.
Tarinakatta No WaThe thing I was missing,
Jikan Demo NakuteWasn’t even time.
Bukiyou Na Ai De KawattekuI’m changing with this clumsy love,
Iyou Na Rashisa Ni KizuiteRealizing this strange sense of self.
Daremo Ga Honne Wo Ieru Youna Jidai Ja NaiThis isn’t an age where everyone can say what they truly feel,
Mada Mienai Ketsumatsu Wa Zutto Kimi Shidai DaSo the ending we can’t see yet is always up to you.
Te De Fureta Genjitsu ToThe reality I could touch with my hands,
Omoi Egaite Ita Risou Zu GaAnd the ideal I had painted in my mind,
Toosugite Mo Teokure Nante NaiEven if they’re too far apart, it’s never too late.
Sou Omoeta Ra NaIf only I could believe that.
Futashika Na Ai Ga Kawaru You NiJust as an uncertain love can change,
Tashika Na Jibun Ni KizuiteI’m realizing my own certain self.
Tatoe Kiyou Ni Ikirarenakute Mo IiIt’s okay if I can’t live so skillfully,
Me Ni Mienai Irodori Wa Kitto Kimi Jishin NandaThe colors you can’t see are surely you, yourself.
