Lena Stone Leans Into Wanton Vibes of ‘Running Out of Red Lights’

Thick red smoke clouds Lena Stone as she cries out the yearning lyrics to her new song, "Running Out of Red Lights," in this stripped-down music video.

The clip — premiering exclusive on Taste of Country — finds Stone on the verge of making a bad decision. Oh, she knows it — the singer is taking each green light she drives beneath as a sign.

"This ain’t going anywhere / But tonight I just don’t care," Stone sings before the chorus:

"Six blocks down from your new place / High heels never hitting those breaks / If nothing gonna stop me then it’s too late / To change my mind / Wishing I could leave you in the rear view / Cause every yellow that I run through / Gets me closer to crashing into you tonight / I’m running out of red lights / Yeah I’m running out of red lights.”

The first single from Stone's just-released self-titled EP follows "Can't Think Straight" and the much more innocent "Nervous," a love song she's been singing for years during the weekly Song Suffragettes shows in Nashville. "Running Out of Red Lights" was co-written with Adam Wood, who also has credits on three other songs on her EP. Stone says the EP is her introduction to Nashville as an artist and as a person.

"They are flirty, confident, stubborn and nostalgic," she says, "just like me."
