I hate you so much but let’s be honest
I never got to show you my darkest
But next to a fire, I think you still burn the brightest

So we both walked out of the forest
You can always seem to spot the tourists
In those downstate towns where stars seem to flourish

I went the wrong way on the Taconic
And I just wish I could turn around
And we both watched as all the lights went out

When you want something and gotta have it
Get thicker coats to cover up your panic
It's an escape plan, but don’t forget your habits

I went the wrong way on the Taconic
And I just wish I could turn around
And we both watched as all the lights went out

Always looking for a way out
But I can never get a grip now
Turn the wheel into the trees
Won’t you come with me?
A grave that everyone found
I went the wrong way on the Taconic
And I just wish I could turn around
And we both watched as all the lights went out

They went the wrong way, now everyone died
They spilt their guts by the way of the roadside
Leave some flowers and see me when you drive
