need help identifying these 3 wires...

While taking apart everything to drop my motor, I noticed the 3 wires in the pics below seem to have been cut... no idea what they are.
Can someone help identify what these go to? This was obviously done by a PO.

No... because I have the original 3rd brake light, and it works fine.

Just an FYI... the wires are wrapped in the same gray loom as the wires that go to the ignition coil.
