Laravel CssSelectorConverter.php - unexpected 'array' (T_ARRAY), expecting function (T_FUNCTION) or const (T_CONST)

Im running php 7.2.5 and laravel 5.8.0, I try to register a user and then this error gets thrown, I have no idea where it is coming from but i think its related to the registration email

syntax error, unexpected 'array' (T_ARRAY), expecting function (T_FUNCTION) or const (T_CONST) and its in the file /var/www/html/vendor/symfony/css-selector/CssSelectorConverter.php
