Well, there′s two sides to my taillights

And they both don't work right

There′s a motel on the highwayAnd a hundred miles outside of Nashville

And I still don't know when I can come home

But I promised I would try so

I might be a coward

Well, the first cut was the deepest

But it healed up whole

And the next one was a soft touch

But I bled out below

We were a team 'til you′re toxic

I mean you talk shit, often

But once upon a time

We were in love

Well, there′s two sides to a fair fight

And you're the third man out

I was hopeful with a slow hand

And I got gunned down

Well, you asked me if I could grow up

But I don′t know why for

I don't know much

I′m a palm frond dying on the front porch

Well, the first cut was the deepest

But it healed up whole

And the last one was a clean hit

But I bled out below

We were a team 'til you′re toxic

I mean you talk shit, often

But once upon a time

We were in love

Know there's two lanes on a highway

And I passed you by

Thought about calling, but I deleted your number

And we both know why

Truth is when I met you

Well, you know you made me cry

And I knew you for a second

You were gone in flashing lights

But since I had one lost one

Oh, at least I said goodbye

What's done is done is not enough to describe

When I met you, I regret you

If it makes for the longest ride

If I let you stay in my head, then it′s overnight

You like when I sing our songs about us

Well, you like when I sing our songs about us in the rain

I exorcise us baby, I′m working out the pain

Well, I knew you had a heart, but God I knew just how you were

If I'd have known you, I′d have cloned you

Just to see you hurt

Well, there's two sides to a timeline and they′ve all got the same arc

When I'm next to you, I can wave to you

Because we′re miles apart

Know you wrote me 'bout your changed things

But baby, you know me

I don't read a damn thing

Don′t ever read a damn thing

Well, the first cut was the deepest

But it healed up whole

And the last one was a clean hit

But I bled out below

We were a team ′til you're toxic

I mean you talk shit, often

But once upon a time

We were in love

Well, there′s two lanes on a highway

And I passed you by

Thought about calling, but I deleted your number

And we both know why
