Last Train Home
[Lostprophets] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To every broken heart in here
Love was once a part, but now it's disappeared
She told me that it's all a part of the choices that your making
Even when you think you're right
You have to give to take
Forget the sorrow
And I can be on the last train home
Watch it pass the day
As it fades away
No more time to care
No more time, today
But we sing
If we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason
To ever fall in love
I wonder if you're listening
Picking up on the signals
Sent back from within
Sometimes it feels like I don't really know whats going on
Time and time again it seems like everything is wrong in here
But there's still tomorrow
Forget the sorrow
And I can be on the last train home
Watch it pass the day
As it fades away
No more time to care
No more time, today
But we sing
If we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason
To ever fall in love
Well we sing if we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing if it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason to ever fall in love
But we sing
If we're going no where
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing with out a reason to never fall in love
To never fall in love again
The lyrics of Lostprophets' "Last Train Home" speak to the pain and confusion that can accompany the end of a relationship. The first verse acknowledges that love was once a part of the relationship, but has since disappeared. The singer is told that such is the consequence of the choices they have made, and that sometimes in order to be right, one needs to give something up. The second verse delves into the singer's sense of confusion and uncertainty in the aftermath of the breakup, reflecting on how things always seem to go wrong. Despite this sense of hopelessness, the chorus offers a defiant note of optimism. The singer resolves to move on from their sorrow and catch the "last train home", watching as the day fades away and ceasing to care about the past. Although they don't know where they're going, they sing anyway - without a reason to ever fall in love again.

To every broken heart in here
Addressing all those who have suffered from heartbreak
Love was once a part, but now it's disappeared
Love was present in the past but is now gone
She told me that it's all a part of the choices that your making
Someone advised that one's choices lead to the current state
Even when you think you're right
Despite feeling confident about your choices
You have to give to take
You have to sacrifice to get something in return
But there's still tomorrow
Hopeful for another day
Forget the sorrow
Leave the pain behind
And I can be on the last train home
Can still make it back to where I belong
Watch it pass the day
Watching the day pass by from the train
As it fades away
The day disappears in the distance
No more time to care
Don't have time to worry anymore
No more time, today
Today is almost over
But we sing
Still singing despite the hardship
If we're going nowhere
Not sure where we're headed
Yeah we sing
Keep singing
If it's not enough
If what we have isn't sufficient
And we sing
Keep on singing
Sing without a reason
Sing without a specific purpose
To ever fall in love
To never get hurt by love again
I wonder if you're listening
Questioning if anyone is paying attention
Picking up on the signals
Noticing the signs
Sent back from within
Coming from one's own thoughts and feelings
Sometimes it feels like I don't really know what's going on
Feeling uncertain about the situation
Time and time again it seems like everything is wrong in here
Repeating cycle of things going wrong in this place
Sing with out a reason to never fall in love
Singing without a particular reason in order to avoid getting hurt by love again
