WALLFLOWERS


One Headlight Lyrics

So long ago, I don't remember when
That's when they say I lost my only friend
Well, they said she died easy of a broken heart disease
As I listened through the cemetery trees

I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn
With the long broken arm of human law
Now, it always seemed such a waste
She always had a pretty face
I wondered why she hung around this place
Hey...

Come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
But me and Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

She said it's cold
It feels like Independence Day
And I can't break away from this parade
But there's got to be an opening
Somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
And I seen the sun up ahead
At the county line bridge
Sayin' all is good and nothingness is dead
We'll run until she's out of breath
She ran until there's nothin' left
She hit the end, it's just her window ledge

Come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
But me and Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

Well, this place is old
It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
Well, it smells of cheap wine and cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
I think your death, it must be killin' me

Hey, hey, hey
Come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
But me and Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

This song is about a lost love. He regrets losing her by breaking her heart. He's asking for a second chance to work togeher and mend the relationship from the broken foundation (one headlight).

This song is sad but beatiful. I really appreciate songs that talk about real life issues, and not just feel good stuff.

The pain of losing you overwhelmed me. People grabbed me up-gave me amnesia. I remember our trip home-one headlight. I never forgot you, couldn't find you. Please call. I love you for eternity. Camila

This song has nothing to do with the Princess Diana tragedy but I inexorably think of her every time I hear it now.

Yea, Brandon. Thanks for the meaning. This song has more meaning to me now. I miss my ex gf so much. She committed suicide in 2008. I'll always think of you Lindsey. I love you.
