[Verse 1: Andrea Ferro]
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

[Pre-Chorus: Andrea Ferro]
I flirt with the dark
I'm suffocating
The turmoil inside
To set my demons straight

[Chorus: Cristina Scabbia, Cristina Scabbia & Andrea Ferro]
'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

[Verse 2: Andrea Ferro]
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

[Pre-Chorus: Andrea Ferro]
I traded my soul
Knowing I took the chance
Of losing myself in the exchange

[Chorus: Cristina Scabbia, Cristina Scabbia & Andrea Ferro]
'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

[Bridge: Cristina Scabbia, Cristina Scabbia & Andrea Ferro]
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

[Refrain: Cristina Scabbia & Andrea Ferro]
Laughing with my shadow
Laughing with my shadow
Laughing with my shadow
Laughing with my shadow


[Spoken Word: Randy Blythe]
And it doesn't even matter if I'm dead or alive

[Chorus: Cristina Scabbia, Cristina Scabbia & Andrea Ferro]
'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
