Verse 1

I watch the river pass me by,

Counting hours I can’t deny.

The current flows, but I don’t move,

An empty heart with nothing to prove.

Pre-Chorus

The water speaks, it doesn’t wait,

It carries time, it seals my fate.

I reach my hand but hold no ground,

The silence drowns without a sound.

Chorus

Shadows on the river, fading out of sight,

The silence is my shelter, the absence of light.

Still I stand and breathe, though nothing feels mine,

A ghost in the current, suspended in time.

---

Verse 2

The milestones sink, the voices fade,

The markers lost, foundations frayed.

The stories end, the clocks all slow,

I’ve nothing left, and nowhere to go.

Pre-Chorus

The river whispers, soft and low,

Invites me gently, “just let go.”

But I still linger, still remain,

Alive in shadows, alive in pain.

Chorus

Shadows on the river, fading out of sight,

The silence is my shelter, the absence of light.

Still I stand and breathe, though nothing feels mine,

A ghost in the current, suspended in time.

---

Bridge (soft, resigned)

Ending is easy, I hear it call,

The water waits to take it all.

But here I stand, a fading flame,

Without a reason, without a name.

---

Final Chorus (slower, fading)

Shadows on the river, fading out of sight,

The silence is my shelter, the absence of light.

Still I stand and breathe, though nothing feels mine,

A ghost in the current, suspended in time.

Outro (whispered)

The river flows…

and I remain
