Redline - Ran Out of Road
Redline - Ran Out of Road “I wrote this song in the wake of what appeared to be a posthumous Audie sighting. It was like he was reminding me that he was still right there with me. And I know he is. This song was written for me, my Redline brothers, and everyone who has experienced the pain of losing a loved one. Each of those groups gets a part of this song, and I hear Audie all over it.” - Reed Jones

Lyrics:
I swear I saw you yesterday, a nod along life's way.
It's like you knew I needed you, even if you couldn't stay.
That front seat, it was vacant, just like so many things;
And all that remained latent, with that voice began to ring.
Chorus:
If the hours were my riches, I could buy the earth and sky.
If memories were wisdom, the whole world would heed my cries.
We plowed hard through all the stop signs, through the curves we never slowed;
Never felt like it was over, we just ran out of road.
You left more than I gave you, I don't think you'd agree.
Though we shared a mind sometimes, I can only speak for me.
Redlines between the white lines, on our road to real renown;
Together un-united, we still put the hammer down.
Chorus:
If the hours were my riches, I could buy the earth and sky.
If memories were wisdom, the whole world would heed my cries.
We plowed hard through all the stop signs, through the curves we never slowed;
Never felt like it was over, we just ran out of road, ran out of road.
Bridge:
With your ears I hear the music play, it's become a part of me;
With gratitude I can't convey, that grows without degree.
Chorus:
If the hours were my riches, I could buy the earth and sky.
If memories were wisdom, the whole world would heed my cries.
We plowed hard through all the stop signs, through the curves we never slowed;
Never felt like it was over, we just ran out of road, ran out of road.
