In “The Station,” Keenan Te watches a relationship slip away through small, painful changes: eyes that no longer brighten, embraces that feel distant, and excuses too tired to hide the truth. Sleepless nights spent reading between the lines give way to a desperate plea for any sign of remaining care, even a fight over silence. The station image captures the ache of arriving just as departure has already happened, leaving only unanswered questions about what went wrong.
The Station Lyrics by Keenan Te
You don’t look at me the way you used to
There was something in your eyes
Kaleidoscope burning so bright
And you’re not holding me the way you used to
You tell me you’re tired
But you’re no good at lying
Sleepless nights and long replies
Trying to read between the lines
Looking for a reason, wondering why
Was it something I did?
Was it something I said?
‘Cause something feels different
Don’t tell me it’s in my head
When did you change your mind?
Decide it’s too late to mend
Feels like I’m at the station
But the train’s already left
I’d rather fight with you than sit in silence
Show me you’re still there
Show me you still care
Is any part of you still up for trying?
If we’re going nowhere
Then I want to go there
‘Cause I can’t take these
Sleepless nights and long replies
Trying to read between the lines
If you’re already gone then say goodbye
Was it something I did?
Was it something I said?
‘Cause something feels different
Don’t tell me it’s in my head
When did you change your mind?
Decide it’s too late to mend
Feels like I’m at the station
But the train’s already left
Give me a reason, give me something
Tell me it wasn’t all for nothing
Honestly we were all I’ve wanted
So I didn’t see this coming
Was I lost inside my head?
Counting words you never said
Did I think that things were more than what it was?
Was it something I did?
Was it something I said?
‘Cause something feels different
Don’t tell me it’s in my head
When did you change your mind?
Decide it’s too late to mend
Feels like I’m at the station
But the train’s already left
