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
