Eminem - River (feat. Ed Sheeran)

[00:00.18] River

[00:00.71] Eminem

[00:01.00] I've been a liar, been a thief

[00:02.43] Been a lover, been a cheat

[00:05.24] All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me

[00:10.68] Well, little one, I don't want to admit to something

[00:14.19] If all it's gonna cause is pain

[00:16.96] Truth and my lies right now are falling like the rain

[00:20.97] So let the river run

[00:22.18] He's comin' home with his neck scratched, to catch flack

[00:24.69] Sweat jackets and dress slacks, mismatched

[00:27.17] On his breath's Jack, he's a sex addict

[00:28.93] And she just wants to exact revenge and get back

[00:31.94] It's a chess match, she's on his back like a jet-pack

[00:34.96] She's kept track of all his Internet chats

[00:37.21] And guess who just happens to be movin' on to the next

[00:39.93] Actually, just shit on my last chick and she has what my ex lacks

[00:43.18] 'Cause she loves danger, psychopath

[00:46.18] And you don't fuck with no man's girl, even I know that

[00:48.42] But she's devised some plan to stab him in the back

[00:51.45] Knife in hand, says their relationship's hangin' by a strand

[00:54.18] So she's been on the web lately

[00:56.68] Says maybe she'll be my Gwen Stacy, to spite her man

[00:59.21] And I know she's using me to try to play him, I don't care

[01:02.49] Hi Suzanne, but I shoulda said "Bye Suzanne"

[01:04.92] After the first night, but tonight I am

[01:06.68] I've been a liar, been a thief

[01:09.23] Been a lover, been a cheat

[01:11.74] All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me

[01:16.72] Well, little one, I don't want to admit to something

[01:21.18] If all it's gonna cause is pain

[01:23.68] The truth and my lies now are falling like the rain

[01:27.43] So let the river run

[01:29.17] A one-night stand turned a two-night stand

[01:30.96] It was "come sunlight, scram, " now we hug tight, and

[01:32.72] He found out, now she feels deserted and used

[01:36.43] 'Cause he left, so what? He did it first to her too

[01:38.67] Now how am I supposed to tell this girl that we're through?

[01:41.43] It's hard to find the words, I'm aloof, nervous, and Sue

[01:44.44] Don't want this to hurt, but what you deserve is the truth

[01:46.23] Don't take it personal, I just can't say this in person to you

[01:49.42] So I revert to the studio, like hole-in-the-wall diners

[01:53.20] Don't have to be reserved in a booth

[01:55.43] I just feel like the person who I'm turning into's

[01:57.42] Irreversible, I preyed on you like it's church at the pew

[01:59.97] And now that I got you I don't want you

[02:01.68] Took advantage in my thirst to pursue

[02:03.96] Why do I do this dirt that I do?

[02:05.43] Get on my soapbox and preach, my sermon and speech

[02:08.22] Detergent and bleach is burnin' the wound

[02:09.96] 'Cause now with her in the womb

[02:11.73] We can't bring her in this world, shoulda knew

[02:13.68] To use protection 'fore I bit into your forbidden fruit (Fuck!)

[02:16.43] I've been a liar, been a thief

[02:18.68] Been a lover, been a cheat

[02:20.97] All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me

[02:26.22] Well, little one, I don't want to admit to something

[02:30.17] If all it's gonna cause is pain

[02:32.94] The truth and my lies now are falling like the rain

[02:36.44] So let the river run

[02:38.18] My name's (ooh), my name's (ooh)

[02:40.19] River (ooh), river run

[02:43.44] Call me (ooh), call me (ooh)

[02:45.92] River (ooh), we'll let the river run

[02:48.96] Always the bridesmaid, never "The bride, hey!"

[02:51.68] Fuck can I say? If life was a highway

[02:54.23] And deceit was an enclave, I'd be swerving in five lanes

[02:56.68] Speeds at a high rate, like I'm slidin' on ice, maybe

[02:59.69] That's why I may have came at you sideways

[03:02.46] I can't keep my lies straight

[03:03.92] But I made you terminate my baby

[03:06.72] This love triangle left us in a wreck, tangled

[03:09.19] What else can I say? It was fun for a while

[03:11.44] Bet I really woulda loved your smile

[03:13.68] Didn't really wanna abort, but fuck it

[03:15.96] What's one more lie, to tell our unborn child?

[03:18.43] I've been a liar, been a thief

[03:19.70] Been a lover, been a cheat

[03:22.43] All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me

[03:27.68] Well, little one (I'm sorry)

[03:31.68] I don't want to admit to something (I fucked up)

[03:32.43] If all it's gonna cause is pain

[03:34.68] The truth and my lies now are falling like the rain

[03:38.22] So let the river run
