Dont know what kind of flower this is?

it is a pinky purplue flower, it is wild and has lobbed edges, and is starting to go by in august? And it isnt a cosmo or a sweet pea. And it is a wild flower that grows on the side of the road. I would post a picture but i dont know how 2.

It's probably phlox. They vary in color from purple to pink to almost white.
