Melancholy River (Endoleo) [J.B.P Remix] (Remastered)

STUDIO

[Intro] [Verse 1] I walk where the streetlights fade, no map in my hand Something in the silence keeps pulling me in I don't know what I'm mourning, I don't know what I lost But the river knows my footsteps, and it never asks the cost [Verse 2] By the river, rain on stone, Long nights walking, always alone, Bus stop shelter, cold winds bite, Empty pockets, no fire tonight. Street songs echo, broken deals, Second-hand shoes, the hunger feels, Dreams washed out where the water flows, Life keeps counting what I owe, ooh. [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Chorus] I rhyme the struggle, soft and slow, City lights fade, but I still go, River keeps secrets, shadows stay, I carry the weight, day by day. By the river, I lose my way... Your love comes back like a tide at break of day... [Chorus] Down by the river, I called your name, Echoes of love, still burn like flame, Ooooh… I miss you so, Ooooh… I can’t let go. Shadows fall, but I see your eyes Memories rise, where the silence lies Oh, the night is long And you were the love that kept me warm [Verse 3] A dead bulb hangs by a boarded-up door Forgot what I’m walking the pavement for I watch the barges, drag the heavy steel Numbing marrow so I don't have to feel [Pre-Chorus] The water has no care, it just swallows rain. I pawned off the locket, I still wear the chain. Every drop is debt, every ripple's a lie. I'm out the shelter, just to watch it die... [Chorus] You were the anchor, I was the rust. Scraping our history down to the crust. You left the river and took back the shore. I pay for sins that I can not afford. I'm dragging the bottom, I scrape the bone. Paying the toll just to stand here alone... [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Footsteps... scrape go by... Sirens... whine and dry... Concrete... cold and slate... Nothing... but the weight... [Chorus] You were the anchor, I was the rust. Scraping our history down to the crust. You left the river and took back the shore. I pay for sins that I can not afford. I'm dragging the bottom, I scrape the bone. Paying the toll just to stand here alone... [Outro] Just the streetlights dying... No map in hand... The river takes... Leaves me on the land... (on the land... on the land...) [End]
