Air in my lungs Till the road begins As the last of the bugs Leave their homes again And I'm splitting the road down the middle For a minute the world seemed so simple
Feel the rush of my blood I'm seventeen again I am not scared of death I've got dreams again It's just me and the curve of the valley And there is meaning on Earth, I am happy
Passed Alger Brook road, I'm over the bridge A minute from home but I feel so far from it The death of my dog, the stretch of my skin It's all washin' over me, I'm angry again The things that I lost here, the people I knew They got me surrounded for a mile or two The car's in reverse, I'm grippin' the wheel I'm back between villages and everything's still
