98 brake problem=

98 base( no ABS ) lumina with 163,000 miles.
today i parked in position at the gas pump. i engaged the emergency brake .
then decided i needed to back up a little. did it with the emergency brake engaged.heard some clunking noises.
later when i drove along the road it seemed that the brakes were very slightly engaged as i gave it the gas pedal.
as i took my foot off the gas pedal it seemed to slow down quicker than usual.
when i got home and parked i noticed the rear brake lights were on. i got in the car and played with the brakes in drive and reverse several times. also i put on and off the emergency brake many times.
the brake lights went out.
any idea,s will be appreciated.
