Passing the Reins to the Dark (EN)

Passing the Reins to the Dark.
Музыка моя, аранжировка SUNO.


I hear a whisper in the hallway of my head,
Footsteps in the shadow trailing every word I said.
He corrects all my thoughts with a poison pen,
Turning every sainted prayer into sin again,
He’s smiling in the mirror with my crooked grins,
I feel the cracks inside me start to squeeze out my sins!

I’m passing the reins to the dark tonight,
Losing my grip on the fading light!
There’s someone in my head I don’t control,
My evil alter ego’s taking hold!
I’m slipping, I’m slipping in this undertow,
And he’s the one steering my soul!

He redraws the lines my existence used to be,
Swallowing the colors till there’s nothing left of me!
All the promises I made start to sound like lies,
When he’s pulling all my strings from behind my eyes,
He’s humming lullabies made of dirty curses,
And all my mercy turns to rage he uses!

I’m passing the reins to the dark tonight!
Losing my grip on the fading light!
There’s someone in my head I don’t control.
My evil alter ego’s taking hold!
I’m slipping, I’m slipping in this undertow
And he’s the one steering my soul!

(yeah)
He wears my face like a borrowed skin! (yeah)
My secrets are the keys that let him in! (yeah)
I'm changing locks, but he’s already inside!
Painting all my gentle thoughts in pitch-black pride!

I’m passing the reins to the dark tonight!
Losing my grip on the fading light!
There’s someone in my head I don’t control,
My evil alter ego’s taking hold!
I’m slipping, I’m slipping in this undertow,
And he’s the one steering my soul!

His whispers rise where my reason falls!
His shadow dances on my crumbling walls!
I see one last spark as the daylight goes,
And my darker side finally overthrows...
