The Outsider
Black Country Communion Lyrics

Long gone
The past is left behind and cannot be undone.

I can hear the siren
The singer senses danger is near and must prepare for it.

And I, feel strong
Despite the danger, the singer's confidence is unwavering.

I don't give a damn
The singer is fearless and cannot be intimidated.

I break
The singer acknowledges their vulnerability but refuses to be broken.

In my darkest hour
The singer faces their greatest trial and must rely on their own strength.

And its,too late
The singer has passed the point of no return and must face the consequences.

For the lion and the lamb
The singer views themselves as both predator and prey, capable of great strength and vulnerability.

I crucified
The singer has made sacrifices and faced hardships in pursuit of their goals.

My flesh is torn
The singer has been wounded, physically or emotionally, in pursuit of their goals.

So take me back
The singer longs for a simpler time or place where they felt more at peace.

Where I belong
The singer seeks a sense of belonging and purpose.

So long
The singer is saying goodbye to the past and moving forward.

I've been elevated
The singer has risen above their struggles and found success.

In the skyline
The singer has achieved recognition and acknowledgement from others.

These are the days
The singer recognizes the good times they are experiencing and is grateful for them.

I'm the keeper
The singer is in control of their fate and responsible for their own success.

You know my name
The singer is known and respected for their achievements.

Kill the reaper
The singer is not afraid of death and is willing to face it head on.

Feed the flame
The singer is passionate about their goals and will not let anything extinguish their desire to succeed.

I'm a rider
The singer is on a journey and experiencing life to the fullest.

Blood red sky
The singer is surrounded by danger and must stay alert.

The outsider
The singer is comfortable being different and standing out from the crowd.

'Till I die
The singer is committed to their goals and will not give up until they are achieved, even if it costs them their life.

Last rite
The singer is facing their own mortality and preparing for the end of their journey.

Time to meet your maker
The singer is ready to face whatever judgement awaits them after death.

In the black light
The singer is surrounded by darkness and uncertainty.

Heavy lies my wake
The singer is weighed down by their past actions and regrets.
