All my good words… yeah, they’re gone and done
All my good words… baby, they’re gone and done
Ain’t no reason left now… to keep runnin’ where we begun
Me and love… we couldn’t make it through
No, me and love… we just couldn’t make it through
Three hearts in one rhythm… ain’t a thing we knew how to do
I had a dream… saw an ocean burnin’ bright
Yeah, I had a dream… saw an ocean burnin’ bright
Clouds were fallin’ all around it… meltin’ in the night
From a cold star… I saw a grey tear fall
Yeah, from a cold star… I saw that grey tear fall
Said “it’s over now, baby… that’s the end of it all”
Don’t you come back… don’t come back in my dreeeams…
No, don’t you come back… you’re tearin’ at the seeeams…
That empty pillow, baby… ain’t as hard as it seeeems…
Wish I could hold… just one breath from you
Yeah, I’d hold it close… just one breath from you
So I’d have somethin’, baby… somethin’ real to hold on to
You were only real… inside that dream of mine
Yeah, you were only real… in that dream one time
And that truth cuts deeper… than any hurt I can find
Don’t you come back… don’t drown my dreeeams agaaain…
No, don’t you come back… don’t drag me through that paaaain…
I don’t wanna think… you’ll leave me just the same…
Don’t come back…
No… don’t come back…
Just to leave me again…
Yeah… just to leave me again…
Origin: Thessaloniki, Greece Label: Music Grey Matter Genre: Urban Dark Soul / Raw Blues / Tech-Infused Soul
The Story: 20 Years in the Shadows
John G. Matter is not a newcomer to the music world. For over 20 years, he has been a force behind the scenes, dedicated to promoting emerging talent and advocating for high-quality, authentic music. After two decades of shaping the careers of others and championing musical excellence, he is finally stepping out of the shadows and into the spotlight.
From the Pavement to the Future
His journey began on the streets of Thessaloniki, where as a busker, he learned the raw truth of the human experience. Today, John blends that hard-earned street wisdom with the power of modern music technology. He uses technology not to mask, but to amplify the unique timbre of his voice and the depth of his emotions, creating a bridge between vintage soul and the digital age.
The Vision: A Search for Connection
Through his gravelly, soulful tone, John G. Matter speaks about everything he has felt, seen, and endured. His music is an open invitation; he creates with the hope of finding people who will identify with his stories and find a piece of themselves in his lyrics.
The Debut
As the cornerstone of Music Grey Matter, John is finally ready to share his own truth. His debut album, a culmination of 20 years of experience and personal struggle, will be released in just a few days.
