I missed the last train
The station sealed in rust
Pigeons in the rafters
Vultures feed on dust

I hear my footsteps echo
Dry leaves scraping stone
Wind howls through empty halls
But nothing here is home

There's no place for me here
Not a bench, not a sign
The journey led nowhere
And I ran out of time

I followed fading signals
Believed in borrowed light
Every wrong turn felt harmless
Until it stayed the night

There's no place for me here
No shelter in this rest
I chased a moving horizon
And missed the moment it left
I watched the distance grow
While I stood still inside
Missed the only departure
By inches of the heart

I stare at broken maps
Stained with years and regret
My home is the final mark
The last point I never met

No train will carry me now
I lost it long before
When I drifted away
From what mattered at all

There's no place for me here
No shelter in this rest
I chased a moving horizon
And missed the moment it left
I watched the distance grow
While I stood still inside
Missed the only departure
By inches of the heart

Years pull their shadows
Across my skin
Ghost fire flickers
Calling me in

There's no place for me here
But I stand in it still
A body in motion
Against my own will
If hope ever lived here
It learned how to leave
And I missed the last train
Because I believed

I light a cold candle
Against the night
Just to wait
For a morning
That might
