Well I rode a while, for a mile or so 
Down the road to the eighteenth avenue 
And the people I saw were the people I know 
And they all came down to take a view 
Oh the path was dark and borderless 
Down the road to the eighteenth avenue 
And it stung my tongue to repeat the words 
That I used to use only yesterday 
Meanings just dropped to the ground 
I tried to remember what I thought 
And what I used to say 
"Don't let me go down" no don't let me go 
Oh my hands were tied as I struggled inside 
The empty waste of another day 
Memories were blank to my eyes 
The fire and the glory of that night 
Seemed safely locked away 
Too hungry to rise. Too hungry to 
 
Well I rode a while, for a mile or so 
Down the road to the eighteenth avenue 
And the people I saw were the people I know 
And they all came down to take a view 
Oh the path was dark and borderless 
Down the road to the eighteenth avenue 
But my head felt better as I turned the car 
And the airport slowly came to view 
One mile said the sign 
Checked my bags and made it straight to end gate 22 
Made it just in time, boy you've made it just in time
