Hosting the Shadow Songtext
von Lacuna Coil feat. Randy Blythe

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 bulletproof
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
