lyrics

THE END OF THE ROAD


SHE LOST HER MIND WHILE WAITING FOR A TRAIN
FOR DAYS SHE STOOD BUT HER RIDE NEVER CAME
AS PASSENGERS POURED IN AND WENT
SILENTLY SHE CLENCHED TO HER LAST HOPES IN SHREDS

SHE FAILED TO REALIZE HER WORLD WAS GONE
TOO MANY YEARS SHE SPENT CLOSING THE WALLS
SHE SITS BY THE RAILS ALL ALONE
UP ON THE PLATFORM NO-ONE ANSWERS THE PHONE

TODAY SHE HAS REACHED THE END OF THE ROAD
SHE BLOCKED THE ESCAPES AND LOCKED ALL THE DOORS
SHE LIVED HER LIFE IN CHARGE OF DESPAIR
AS FEARS FILLED THE AIR
THE WARNINGS WERE FAIR

A MAN THOUGHT HE HAD SEEN HER STANDING NEAR
BUT SOON THE RAIN HAD WASHED THE VISION CLEAR
HE WALKED TO THE CAR AS HE REACHED THE STEPS
HE LOOKED ONCE AGAIN
NOTHING BUT EMPTINESS

TODAY SHE HAS REACHED THE END OF THE ROAD...
SHE BLOCKED THE ESCAPES AND LOCKED ALL THE DOORS
SHE LIVED HER LIFE IN CHARGE OF DESPAIR
AS FEARS FILLED THE AIR
ALL WARNINGS WERE FAIR
