Tunnel vision, I'm racing on the S-Bahn
Away from you 'cause we're stuck again
We blow up like it's always New Year's Eve
Just with no reason to celebrate, and my head hurts so bad
Your chain, cold silver
Is cutting off my air right now
I drag myself into the next bar
Two together has never felt lonelier
I'm lost, maybe I'll find my way home
If I send up smoke signals
I burn cigarettes to ash, only thinking about the end
Why am I freezing in your T-shirt?
Where are you when my heart tears apart?
I'm lost and starting to believe
I'm in the wrong place with you
Something's gotta change right now
I don't recognize myself anymore, maybe
Because you don't like me the way I am
Outside it's slowly getting dark
I don't know what you're doing and notice I just don't care
I paint final lines in the sky, let the sun go down
I'm in the mood for goodbyes and for never seeing you again
Haven't said it yet, and when I do it'll hurt for sure
But we were a bad idea from the very start
I'm lost, maybe I'll find my way home
If I send up smoke signals
I burn cigarettes to ash, only thinking about the end
Why am I freezing in your T-shirt?
Where are you when my heart tears apart
I'm lost and starting to believe I'm in the wrong place with you
I'm lost and starting to believe I'm in the wrong place with you

SONG MEANING

Stuck on a never-ending train ride, “Ende” captures the moment you realise a relationship has become a dead end. Nina Chuba races through Berlin’s S-Bahn with tunnel vision, replaying explosive arguments that feel like New Year’s Eve fireworks without any reason to celebrate. The cold necklace from her partner tightens like a noose, and even a crowded bar cannot mask how lonely two people can be together. Cigarette smoke becomes her signal flare, each ash-flick a wish to find the way home to herself.

The song is a breakup epiphany wrapped in vivid urban imagery. As dawn creeps in, she sketches “final lines” across the sky, admitting that from the very beginning this love was a bad idea. Shivering in her partner’s T-shirt, she asks the piercing question, “Why am I freezing when you should be keeping me warm?” By the last chorus she confronts the truth: she is lost because she is in the wrong place, with the wrong person. “Ende” turns heartbreak into empowerment, inviting listeners to light their own signal flame and walk toward a sunrise that belongs solely to them.
