Shape Shifter Lyrics

Cover art for Shape Shifter lyrics by Local Natives

Just because the word hallucinate is mentioned doesn't mean it's about drugs.

I kind of get a spiritual vs physical dialogue out of this. It's our soul that defines us, not our physical shape, therefor the mirror doesn't really reflect us. When we follow the spiritual aspect, we change outwardly, shapeshifting, as it were.
