Another set of lyrics that started out more of a poem. Stating the obvious again, it appeared to me many people search for the perfect one overlook the very person they are seeking. Even in 1981 I knew how easy it was to underestimate the importance of relationships and great friends. We will all find out eventually that we were just a bit too late. The commercials of the day are responsible for the rest of the lyrics and I am not sure if they mean anything at all, but I like the idea of a glass of tears.

From a broken relationship and the ensuing emptiness reflections are not easy. You can’t forget and remembering is overwhelming. A realization that you don’t have to wait, but what you want will easily pass you by. And from that day on you will know your loss. I remember adding the line about the train because our bass player in the Merchants of Death said he really liked to watch trains. So there you go!
From Where We Are MSK 1976

Wow, this is an old one! As a younger man I am beginning to imagine the life of a musician and entertainer. But my stage is in an empty arena. Family building with no money and less time takes its toll. Spread thin, sacrifices required, you know, the usual stuff kids deal with. Time to redirect and focus my life to move forward. Learn from mistakes and turn painful lessons to good use.

I must have been considering the shock felt by people in a real crisis. Natural and industrial disasters, war, famine, whatever. Those who find themselves in extreme situations have no training to help them face the challenge. Watching on TV we think we know what we would have done better or smarter. I can only hope.

Opposing views of the same situation. What we might see as precious others see as ridiculous. Each of us blind to the cost of ignoring the obvious. Lessons learned by so many are forgotten to apathy. Shared knowledge replaced by broadcast propaganda.
