Hitchhiking North

I hailed a ride from the back of the mission headed to the north
It was a warm still night as
We drove the moon rose up and sat upon the road
I felt I did what's right
Driving towards that
Light I felt I was alive
The driver spoke about his troubles
I listened dutifully as we sailed through the night in
This car I'm what I want to be
I have no history I chose to do what's right
Leave in the middle
Of the night I headed to the north
I chose to do what's right
Committed to the north
