Sounds like the tail light switch is defective. It must have gotton hot some time in the past and fuesed the connection inside the switch.
here is how to find out if it is the switch.
Remove the bottom panel from the dash so you can get at the plug.
Follow the wires from the switch and unlpug it. If the lights now go off, just replace the switch.
If not the the wires are fused in the dash and will require more work.

tail lights or brake lights? if its the brake light then id say its the brake light switch. if it the tail light then it could be several things. short to ground or a bad switch..
