In the shadow of nightfall, I wander alone,
With the weight of my weary heart, like a rolling stone.
The river whispers secrets, of pain long past,
Every bend in the water, a memory to cast.
That old moon is rising, casting silver on the flow,
I trace my regrets, in the darkness down below.
With every drop of sorrow, sinking like a stone,
I'm searching for salvation, in a world unknown.
The current keeps on pulling, with a steely embrace,
I close my eyes and listen, to the night’s soft grace.
Oh, redemption’s a river, winding through my soul,
And I’m fishing for forgiveness, to finally feel whole.
The blues of the twilight, they sing out my name,
A melody of heartache, but I’m learning to change.
For every scar I carry, there’s a story to tell,
In the depths of this darkness, I can rise from my shell.
So I’ll wade through the waters, let the past set me free,
With the struggles behind me, I’ll become who I’m meant to be.
As the river keeps flowing, I'll dance with the pain,
And in the arms of nightfall, I'll find hope once again.
By the bank of redemption, I'll rest my weary head,
With the echoes of sorrow, finally laid to bed.
In the glow of tomorrow, I'll follow the light,
For a heart once in shadows, will soon take to flight.
Blues
