A chance to think
Am I drinkning too much
Should I keep going
Lose the life that I love
A second glance
When coming to a red light
You can run a red light
Give up at a red light
You break the mold
When running through the tolls
Speeding through your whole life
When things look low
You've gotta keep stong
Feet to the grass
You've gotta walk it off
The bows been tied
Too tight to laugh
Feet to the ground
You've gotta walk it off
You can run a red light
You can run a red light
Start to think
Am I drinkning too much
Should I keep going
Lose the life that I love
You can run a red light
Give up at a red light
You break the mold
When running through the tolls
Speeding through your whole life
You can run a red light
Give up at a red light
You break the mold
When running through the tolls
Speeding through your whole life
You can run a red light
You can run a red light
You sing a song
While sitting at a red light
