After the Last Train

The city is sleeping

but I am still awake

watching the lights disappear

one by one

The last train left at midnight

the station lost its sound

my footsteps keep repeating

on an empty underground

The messages are fading

the conversations too

but every street I walk through still leads me back to you

Maybe we were only moments

passing through the same place

Maybe some things disappear

but never really fade

After the last train

when the city turns quiet

I hear all the things

I forgot to

say

After the last train

when nobody is around

I find a little piece of myself

still waiting underground

The windows show reflections

of strangers passing by

everyone is carrying

a story they don't describe

The years are moving faster

then I ever thought they would

but I am learning how to lose the things I never could

If tomorrow comes without answers if the road becomes unknown

I will follow every signal

that reminds me I'm still home

After the last train

when the lights start to disappear

I know every ending is another place to begin

After the last train

I don't need to run away

I will keep walking forward until I find another day

The city is sleeping

but I am still awake (awake)
