Station without Trains

They took the timetable away The last train left a year ago The platform grew a seam of grass We watched the buses come and go My sister found the hall for rent We brought a drum kit through the doors Station without trains We are more than what remains If the old line ends right here Let a new sound fill the air The porter brought his grandson down The baker sold her rolls at cost A girl came back from out of town And sang about the years she'd lost Station without trains We are more than what remains If the old line ends right here Let a new sound fill the air Some people still moved on that fall A song can't pay for every life But once a month the waiting hall Was full of people choosing light Station without trains We are more than what remains If the old line ends right here Let a new sound fill the air The tracks lie quiet past the bend The hall has opened up again
