Hosting the Shadow

My time is up but I don't care

I march alone, alienated

I won't drift away

Born a loner, I don't mind

I just need the pain to feel alive

I flirt with the dark

I'm suffocating

The turmoil inside

To set my demons straight

'Cause I'm not afraid of the absence of light

At the bottom of the well I find respite

And it doesn't even matter if I'm dead or alive

Alone, I'm hosting the shadow

This life is coming with a price

No room for negotiation

A never-ending debt I cannot repay

I need to hold on

And don't be afraid

To embrace the darkest side of my bleak heart

I traded my soul

Knowing I took the chance

Of losing myself in the exchange

'Cause I'm not afraid of the absence of light

At the bottom of the well I find respite

And it doesn't even matter if I'm dead or alive

Alone, I'm hosting the shadow

Let the rain fall hard and purge the road

'Cause my life feels so uneasy

I've got nothing to lose, oh, I know

I'm finding comfort into the gloom

Feeling bullet proof

Laughing with my shadow

Laughing with my shadow

Laughing with my shadow

Laughing with my shadow

Laughing with my shadow

And it doesn't even matter if I'm dead or alive

'Cause I'm not afraid of the absence of light

At the bottom of the well I find respite

And it doesn't even matter if I'm dead or alive

Alone, I'm hosting the shadow

Let the rain fall hard and purge the road

Alone, I'm hosting the shadow

Let the rain fall down and purge my soul

Alone, I'm hosting the shadow
