Chameleon by Petra


This song is from the very early 80's, once I got into Petra, I bought all their older albums as well, including this one. I liked it enough that you'll see a few songs on here from this album.



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, some run cold 
Some run from their maker 
Some run the risk of losing out 
With lukewarm friends and fakers 

Chameleon 
You blend with your surroundings 
Chameleon 
No one knows where you come from 
Chameleon 
You change with every situation 
Compromising dedication 

You compromise each word you say so innoffensively 
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 

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

There is no gray, 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 savor 
The world becomes so bland
