letra de autumn waters - brayjamin

the thing with a river is
it doesn’t even matter how much you change
the dams will break and the feelings fade until there’s nothing

and you’re left alone in thought

pull me under again
with you sunshine fades into two timelines
drenched in the nick of thine fumbling
as he reaches for his lifeline, mumbling
“i need you to respect the fact this can’t be anything”

third reprise you’d think i’d recall his malaise
momentum builds up tension in my mind
my thirst for attention
losing sight of reality out of springtime

if i could find that silver line
i’d trace it through the haze
i’d trace it to the place we met
fl!ckering glimmers of the past remind of possibilities
once in reach, now drifting
alas, the tides have changed
and so have we
adrift in a sea of uncertainty
a tempest unraveling of tapestry and the layer’ll peel away
thread-by-thread, i forget again
my memories blend and fray
the river’s flow, it always flows
and it’ll always wash away

i try to grasp what little remains
tethered by the roots, i have to say
“will i forever sulk?”

sand falls through my fingers
all i hear are whispers of a song, forgotten

a cold-flowing river carries me along
years have passed and gently i collide with newfound fear
at last, the glistening moonlit display
embraced by the night acceptance washes over me

these strands of memories, once so vivid, now they wither
as springtime lilacs, bend and shiver in the winter

but i won’t lie, i’m glad, albeit overdue
autumn waters lately showering anew
autumn waters lately showering anew

but i won’t lie, i’ve had a true rendezvous
and i won’t lie, i’m sad, my whole world was you
autumn waters lately showering anew
autumn waters lately showering anew
