Brother are you watching me
I’ve been walking a straight line
traveling from town to town
To you I am a stranger
always a phone call or letter away
from another letdown

Where do you see me
in five years from now
When I need to get there
will you show me how

Sister are you hearing this
I’ve [bad word] forever
chasing this odd dream of mine
To you I am a soldier
who keeps pushing on but always falls
to the back of the line
