Streetlights blink through fog and glass
A fading town, the moment passed
Your name still warming up my mouth
But there's no one left to say it out
The rhythm of the tracks below
Beats softer now, like letting go
I watch the world begin to fade
And feel the quiet where you stayed

You said, "Every journey finds its end"
But I never thought we'd break, just bend

Now it's the last stop, and I'm still here
Holding the ghost of every year
The doors all open, no one waits
Just echoes walking through the gates
This isn't closure, just a pause
In everything we were and lost
You're not coming, that I know
Still I wait before I go

There's your letter in my coat
Folded like the words you wrote
No promises, no second page
Just ink that's dried and turned to grey
The cold creeps in around my hands
As if to say it understands
We chase the things we never keep
And leave the rest in too-deep sleep

I whispered things you'll never hear
To a seat you haven't touched in years

Now it's the last stop, and I'm still here
Holding the ghost of every year
The doors all open, no one waits
Just echoes walking through the gates
This isn't closure, just a pause
In everything we were and lost
You're not coming, that I know
Still I wait before I go

I could stand and walk away
But I keep hoping you'll appear
Somehow just one step too late
Saying what I needed to hear

But it's the last stop, and time moves on
Even when the heart holds on
The silence speaks what we both knew
Some stories end without "me too"
So I'll breathe in, I'll let it be
One goodbye you won't hear from me
It's the last stop, and you're not here
Still I carry you, year to year
