Hampus & Ragna - The Shapeshifter / The Grim Reaper

Night train passes
The last one of the night
Far away, the sounds of day decay
And I just wanna stay here in the artificial lights (Stay in all the lights)
Oh, to see you
Light up in the dark
The things I say may not always be true
But when I'm here with you, you know it's always from the heart (Oh it's from the heart)
In words and with actions
I'll become whatever you desire
I'll be your shining knight
The golden light of which I sang so long ago
And no one knows what shape i will shift to
Tonight
Some find comfort behind a podium
To spout whatever they've been told to say
And I've always lived that way although to you it may seem dumb (Although it's dumb)
But there's a new voice in my soliloquy
"Maybe you can love me as i am"
And if you really can, why did it take so long to see? (Why don't you see?)
Is this my redemption?
Will I come back, wherever I have been?
And if I'm willing to go running through the rain
There is a chance that there may still be room for me
Can i board the night train?
Night train passes
The last one of the night
I'm the only passenger it seems
I'm stuck between extremes
No destination feels quite right (Nothing feels right)
Oh darling, it feels like
My whole world is bursting at the seams
And in the midst of all suspicions falling down around me
I can see a figure cloaked in black
In black
"My introductions are in order
I've walked beside you for some time
My name is Death, I've come here to escort you past the border
I've seen your idiotic fumblings
all your embarrassed second thoughts
and every chance you've squandered unintelligibly mumbling
It can't be that hard!
You knew there would come a day
When I would take you far away
As far away as you will ever get
But I have become your friend
Throughout the years, and in the end
This time for you I'm willing to forget
(But) I will return, my quota must be met
So make this one your best adventure yet"
