Lyrics
Description
Station bench, soaked with rain Coal smoke clings to my coat
Ticket stub, frayed and plain Pocket full of tired hope
Bass hums like a slow whine wheel Tubal breeze beneath my ribs
Guitar scratches out a truth I speak low, the room forgives
Midnight train takes what's mine Leaves my ticket on the sill
Rolls the night like a slow white line Moves on soft against my will
Overcoat stained with last year's snow Bench size under one more man
Window glass holds a cold halo Street lamp maps the town and land
Children's laughter in a pain Faded names on the platform post
I feel the pull of distant rails Love unties and turns to ghost
Midnight train stole what's mine Coughed up coal and shut the door
Promises burned into smoke Left me counting less than before
I kept the ledger of my sins Wrote your name beside each line
Night wears a collar of sorrow Cello bows scrape out my prayer
A light of flares, a sunless glow Ash falls quiet on the stair
Hands rough as rusted rails at dawn Eyes learned how to read goodbye
I tip my hat to passing ghosts I watch the world then roll away
Midnight train keeps what's mine I stamp my name and let it go
Tracks carry off the living weight Teach the heart how slow to flow
Station bench now empty friend Coal smoke lingers soft and thin
In the hush the last bell bends I breathe out all I could not win
Listen close the sleepers know That midnight calls and comes again
But underfoot a steady low A pulse that learns to stitch and mend
