running on empty

starting on a full tank
full speed ahead
wrecklessly driving
our love
we were far from
running on empty

soon time wore on
and wore us out
each time we lied
each time we cheated
a step closer to
running on empty

it's come to the point
there's been so much damage
do we really still
love each other?
as we're almost
running on empty

we've crossed the line
the sign blinks red
reminding how far we went
without stopping to think
that we were
running on empty

the car is dead
we can't move forward
futile pushing
and trying to make this work
let's open our eyes
we're running on empty

it's over now
get out of the car
and walk away
we're getting nowhere
when we are both
running on empty
