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
