Blue Light

You pick me up
Headlights on
Boppin' along to your favorite song
Driving along
Different roads
But we always get to the same place

They say all roads lead to Rome but all the roads I know
Lead to hell with you
It's starting to feel like home
How the fire shifts and glows
Turns every good thing to coal

Keep your hands on the wheel (Uh-huh)
I don't know how to feel (Oh-no)
We keep it too real (Uh-huh)
We've lost our appeal (Oh-no)

'Cause red lights mean no, and green lights mean go, ahead

I asked for a red light
A green light
You gave me a blue light
What the fuck is a blue light

Rome wasn't built in a day
Yet we speed down the highway
I'm left wondering if we were ever sane
The way our faces contort in excitement

I set the pace (Uh-huh)
You said we're winning this race (Oh-no)
That was our first mistake (Uh-huh)
Laid ourselves to waste (Oh-no)

'Cause red lights mean no, and green lights mean go, ahead

I asked for a red light
A green light
You gave me a blue light
What the fuck is a blue light
Now that we're over
Let's get some closure
Before we run out of time

When you drive past the dive bars, the bright cars
"I hope you think of me"
When you drive past the estates, with big gates
That remind you of bill gates
"I hope you think of me too"
When you drive past each stop sign 'cause you won't brake for any guy
I hope you see there's no blue light

I asked for a red light
A green light
You gave me a blue light
What the fuck is a blue light
Now that we're over
Let's get some closure
Before we run out of time

B-b-b blue light
I hope you see there's no blue light
