The End of the Line Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When the sirens flash is gone
And we're left to carry on
All the memories are too few
When the pastor's music plays
And that casket rolls away
I could live again if you
Just stay alive for me

[Chorus]
Please stay now, you left me here alone
It's the end of the line
Please stay, I can't make it on my own
(It's the end of the line)
Make it on my own, woah
It's the end of the line, woah

[Verse 2]
Now that you are dead and gone
And I'm left to carry on
I could never smile 'cause you
Won't stay alive for me

[Chorus]
Please stay now, you left me here alone
It's the end of the line
Please stay, I can't make it on my own
(It's the end of the line)
Make it on my own, woah
It's the end of the line, woah
[Bridge]
Finally
Your final resting day
Is without me
I weep
And think of brighter days
What about me?
You can't take back, the one mistake
That still lives on after life it takes
In that one day, that changed our lives
And bitter memories are left behind
You can't take back, the one mistake (Woah)
That still lives on after life it takes
In that one day, that changed our lives (Woah)
And bitter memories are left behind, oh yeah

[Chorus]
Please stay now, you left me here alone (Woah-oh-oh-oh)
It's the end of the line
Please stay, I can't make it on my own
It's the end of the line
Woah-oh-oh-oh
Make it on my own, woah-oh-oh-oh
It's the end of the line, Woah-oh-oh-oh

[Outro]
Please stay now, you left me here alone
(Woah-oh-oh-oh)
It's the end of the line
(Woah-oh-oh-oh)
Please stay, I can't make it on my own
(Woah-oh-oh-oh)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

The End of the Line is the 9th track on The Offspring’s Americana. The song is pretty self explanatory and has similar subject matter to their other song Gone Away.

Someone Dexter really loved has died, and he’s begging for them to stay alive.
