The shadow rider's laughter
still echoes through the city at night.
He finds no rest
and secretly runs after me.
He's soaked up life
to the fullest,
but his soul bleeds out
over and over again.
Once our blood was so red
that we had to dance the whole night long
and it ran hotly through our veins
with recklessness.
Put your rooty hand on my head,
animal face with black hair,
so I finally know
what I was years ago.

Shadow rider,
my companion.
I hang by his threads
and run through the night.
The shadow rider's laughter
keeps me awake for a long time.
Come pull my cart,
it's stuck so deep in the mud.
The life of a fool
is without meaning and purpose.
[x8]
Shadow rider,
my companion.
