Cheap Motel Light

[Chorus] Three AM, this cheap motel room Engine hummin' a low, slow tune Another city, another lonely night Just the headlights fading out of sight Got my packin' on the floor This town ain't my home anymore [Verse] Air conditioner's a constant drone Through the dirty blinds, the parking lot shown A single truck, a faded sign Another day, another dollar line Smokin' down to the filter's end Wishin' this highway would just transcend [Pre-Chorus] This empty bed, a hollow space Tracers in the sky, I can't keep pace My heart's back home, my wheels keep turnin' This restless fire leaves me burnin' [Chorus] Three AM, this cheap motel room Engine hummin' a low, slow tune Another city, another lonely night Just the headlights fading out of sight Got my packin' on the floor This town ain't my home anymore [Bridge] Ashes in the tray, a monument to sleep Promises I made, too hard to keep Each mile marker a whisper of the past Wonderin' how long this lonely road can last [Verse] See the highway, ghosts of light Flickerin' by in the fading night Radio crackles, a distant song Where do I belong, where did I go wrong? This worn-out steering wheel in my hand Lost between the road and my homeland [Chorus] Three AM, this cheap motel room Engine hummin' a low, slow tune Another city, another lonely night Just the headlights fading out of sight Got my packin' on the floor This town ain't my home anymore
