Opposites, I

I am the center of my perceptions

Mine is the unanimous point of view

Mine the acceptance and the rejection

Mine the fears and the derring-do

Mine the truth and the deceptions

Mine the sun and the gloom

Mine your features and your failures

Mine the gods and the devils too

I am the center of my perceptions

Mine is the unanimous point of view

So, if some single soul can hurt me

Mine’s the hurt, I make it too

Hi Brother!

Hi Brother, I was
On a train headed for some town
When the conductor yelled,

“Next stop, Albuquerque!”
I yelled, “Man you better slow this damn thing down!”

For I must detain
Depart
Detrain
Must go to see my kin
‘Cause it’s been years since I was here
Don’t know when I’ll be again

So, Hi Brother, I was
In a train now pulling to a pause
Conductor yells, “This is Albuquerque!”
And I yell, “Clear the way, I’m coming through because…”

For I must detain
Depart
Detrain
Must go to see my kin
‘Cause it’s been years since I was here
Don’t know when I’ll be again

So Hi Brother, now I was
Dashing through the lounge car to the streets
When the conductor yelled, “Last Call!”
And I was trampled ‘neath the rush of a thousand feet

Still, Hi Brother, and I was
Sittin’ in the lounge car in a daze
When that conductor yells, “All aboard!”
And I yelled, “Hell, I never even got away!”

Did not detain
Depart
Detrain
Did not see my kin
Did not call to say, “I’m here!”
Or even, “How ya been?”

So now it’s, Goodbye Brother
‘Cause I am
Headed out of town and into space
But if it hadn’t of been for that conductor
You know I would have stopped by at your place
Yeah, if it hadn’t of been for that damn conductor
You know I would have stopped by at your place
Would have been so fine to see your smilin’ face

But I was, Hi Brother!
