Last Train to Wherever
Télépopmusik Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Spending our days translucent, in and out of everything
Hanging out with strangers that's the way that we begin
Staring at the sun, thinking it's the moon,
A tiny indication it's gonna happen soon.
But not like you expect these silhouettes are getting closer
They bring you what you need never what you hope for.
I guess by now they shoulda told ya
I guess by now they're getting closer.

There's so many things I just don't want to say,
Like have you got the stuff I need a good day
There's so many things I just don't want to do
But your way is my way so walk on through
Did you get the letter, the one I never sent ya
I'm all alone on my own misadventure, seeking something
That I don't want to find, 'cause if I do there's no rewind.

Spraying our names on the trains in silver and black
Then I make my way back across the tracks
I can always find you wherever you are
There's fire in your eyes in the miracle park
I'm on the very last train to wherever, reckon that
I'll see you sometime like never, not even in
My wildest did I think that it would go like this,
Moving through the air, crazy kinda poet kid

I owe you this I say to myself
I owe you this and nothing else

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Télépopmusik's song 'Last Train to Wherever' speak to the experiences of two people who are living their lives in an unconventional way. The first verse sets the stage for a story of drifting and searching, as the singer talks about spending their days 'translucent', floating in and out of everything. They hang out with strangers as a way of starting something new, and stare at the sun, mistaking it for the moon. There's a sense of anticipation and uncertainty, as they wait for something to happen.


The second verse delves deeper into the relationship between the two characters. The singer describes how there are so many things they don't want to say or do, but they'll follow the other person anywhere. They talk about a letter that was never sent, and a sense of loneliness and seeking that permeates their lives. Despite this, there's a sense of love and loyalty between them.


The chorus describes how they connect with each other through graffiti art, and how they can always find each other no matter where they are. The final lines speak to the idea of moving through life as a 'crazy kinda poet kid', and owing something to yourself and the other person.


Overall, 'Last Train to Wherever' is a heartfelt and poetic exploration of two people who are living their lives on their own terms, searching for meaning and connection in a world that can often feel chaotic and uncertain.
