Private Hell

VERSE 1
When the calm of the river
Just drowns out the noise
And the sorrow is crashing
Like a billion waves, no choice
They tried to tell me
What I'm supposed to say
But the truth is a hollow drum
I just beat it away

CHORUS
It is well, with my soul
A cracked mirror reflection
This burden takes its toll
On the road to redemption
It is well, yeah, it is well
This is my own private hell
But I'm still breathing, still screaming
It is well, with my soul

VERSE 2
The demons they gather
In the shadow of the night
Every single doubt you feel
They're holding up the light
Let the pressure mount up
'Til the frame starts to bend
If there's a higher power watching
It's just waiting for the end

CHORUS
It is well, with my soul
A cracked mirror reflection
This burden takes its toll
On the road to redemption
It is well, yeah, it is well
This is my own private hell
But I'm still breathing, still screaming
It is well, with my soul

BRIDGE
My mistakes, the weight of the world
A whisper in the static, a flag unfurled
I don't carry the cross, I just carry the strain
But the rhythm of the madness
Washes out the pain

GUITAR SOLO / INSTRUMENTAL BREAK

CHORUS
It is well, with my soul
A cracked mirror reflection
This burden takes its toll
On the road to redemption
It is well, yeah, it is well
This is my own private hell
But I'm still breathing, still screaming
It is well, with my soul

OUTRO
With my soul...
Yeah, it is well...
