[Verse 1]
There's a red light on the hill
And a bridge out going down
There's a city limits marker
Of an unfamiliar town
With my head slightly bent
I can see it in the lights

[Refrain]
Unknown passage
Cuttin' like a knife through the night

[Verse 2]
Headlights on the highway
There's a mist coming down
I can hear someone crying
I know that sound
It's the morning before daybreak
A hundred miles down the line

[Refrain]
Unknown passage
Cuttin' like a knife through the night

[Verse 3]
Asked, "Where are you going?"
"Somewhere far away"
She was standing at the window
I won't forget her face
With my suitcase and my old car
I'm driving somewhere blind
[Refrain]
Unknown passage
Cuttin' like a knife through the night

[Outro]
Cuttin' like a knife through my eyes
