Verse 1
Same doors open but they won’t for long,
One year flew by, now the sign says “gone”,
Didn’t plan the exit, wasn’t my call,
Building shutting down, so we all gotta fall.
No countdown dreams, no escape plot,
Just showed up daily, gave what I got,
Learned some names, learned some days,
Learned how quick things change their ways.
Pre-Chorus
I ain’t bitter, I ain’t mad,
Just a weird little ending to what we had,
Not every goodbye gotta come with a fight,
Sometimes the lights just go out at night.
Chorus
It’s my last day at my current job,
Not runnin’ away, just the doors get locked,
One year in, yeah I did my part,
Solid from the jump, solid to the dark.
Yeah my last day at my current job,
Building go quiet when the clocks all stop,
I walk out calm, head still strong,
End of this shift, but I still move on.
Verse 2
Shook a few hands, said “see you round”,
Funny how fast silence fills the sound,
No big speeches, no farewell show,
Just a “take care” and a “you never know”.
Did my time clean, no bridges burned,
Every little lesson still gets learned,
Temporary walls, permanent growth,
That’s how it goes when the truth unfolds.
Pre-Chorus
Wasn’t forever, wasn’t pretend,
Just a solid chapter with a sudden end,
No regrets how I showed up here,
Even if it only lasted a year.
Chorus
It’s my last day at my current job,
Not my decision, just the final lock,
One year strong, yeah I played my role,
Kept it professional, kept my soul.
Yeah my last day at my current job,
Lights go off but I don’t feel lost,
I walk out steady, not withdrawn,
End of this shift — but I still move on.
Outro
Keys on the desk, doors shut tight,
Empty halls echo good nights,
If they ask what’s next, I say “we’ll see,”
Building’s done — but not me
