Track Insight / Lyrics
Meter clicks off, another fare paid
Rain streaks the glass where headlights played
Coffee grows cold in a paper cup
Dawn breaks slow, I'm packing it up
Vinyl booth cracked, spring pokes through
Pie case empty, just crumbs for two
Sign sputters pink, a dying heart
Paint curls back where dreams depart
Neon rust on depot walls
Last stop coffee, final calls
Pink glass trembles, loses fight
Swallowed by the coming light
Schedule board flips, trains roll past
Diesel coughs, a thunderous blast
Sign watches trains it cannot ride
Fading pink in morning tide
Neon rust on depot walls
Last stop coffee, final calls
Pink glass trembles, loses fight
Swallowed by the coming light
Thirty years I've watched it fade
Through snow and heat, the debt is paid
No hand comes to paint it new
Just rust and rain and morning dew
Regulars gone, moved or died
Counter stools with nowhere to hide
Sign keeps blinking, stubborn, proud
Voice of night, not lost in cloud
Keys in ignition, engine turns
City wakes, the morning burns
One last look at peeling red
Promises the night is dead
Neon rust on depot walls
Last stop coffee, final calls
Pink glass trembles, loses fight
Swallowed by the coming light
Neon rust on depot walls
Last stop coffee, final calls
Pink glass trembles, loses fight
Swallowed by the coming light
Neon rust on depot walls
Morning light fills empty halls
Fare is paid, the engine hums
Neon rust, the morning comes
