Tail Lights

[Verse 1] The red lights stare into your eyes They burn like Ohio fireflies We were younger on the summer nights But I was born to lose For a couple of bucks into the tank We drove until the moon had sank A dead end life on a dead end road I had everything to prove (I had everything to prove) [Chorus] The tail lights drew closer as I followed you home A conversation took a turn and left me all alone Poured all my heart and spilled my blood I screamed until it hurt I noticed that when I saw your eyes There was nothing left to burn [Verse 2] The lonesome highway became my home I burned up all these Ohio roads The summer miles became winter nights As I memorized I75 On the dead end road that took me back To that end of summer heart attack I parked the car and crossed the tracks And I searched for those dying eyes (Dying eyes) [Chorus] The tail lights drew closer as I followed you home A conversation took a turn and left me all alone Poured all my heart and spilled my blood I screamed until it hurt I noticed that when I saw your eyes There was nothing left to burn
