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 bind 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
