Well, I rode awhile for a mile or so,
Down the road to the 18th Avenue,
And the people I saw were the people I know,
And they all came down to take a view,
The path was dark and borderless,
Down the road to the 18th Avenue,
And it stung my tongue to repeat the words
That I used to use only yesterday,
Meanings just dropped to the ground,

Don’t let me go down, no, don’t let me go!

The fire and the glory of that night seems safely locked away,
Too hungry to rise, oh, too hungry to

Down the road to the 18th Avenue,
And the people I saw were the people I know,
And they all came down to take a view,
The path was dark and borderless,
Down the road to the 18th Avenue,
But my head felt better as I turned the car,
And the airport slowly came in view,
‘One mile’ said the sign! Woh-oh!
I checked my bags and made it straight to end Gate 22,
"Made it just in time
Boy, you made it just in time!"
